Hi, I am not an specialist in Postfix, just a common admin. Yet, I can see two things from your message:
1. You sure have a DNS resolution problem. No external server should be resolved to 192.168.x.x, that is an internal network. Also, the last two octets (255.255) are almost allways used for broadcasting packets in the network. The IP address for mx1.likya.com should never be 192.168.255.255; 2. Because of the DNS resolution problem, postfix is just trying to connect to 192.168.255.255 to deliver the message to [email protected], but could not, of course. I issued three commands: # dig likya.com ns # dig likya.com mx # host mx1.likya.com The first two seems that likya.com is configured correctly, instead the last command resolved to the IP address 192.168.255.255, that is wrong. So, problem with DNS resolution is with the admins of likya.com, not you. Best thing to do? I would just remove all entries in postfix queue that are for the wrong configured server (likya.com). Probably, someone at likya.com just made a wrong config. May be - in the interests of your users - you should try the likya.com site and look for a way to talk to them and tell them about the problem. Else you should keep an eye on the postfix queue and keep removing any messages for that domain, if they continue to pop.
