I have Postfix/Dovecot/MySQL installation with several virtual domains, all is well.
I need to transfer several virtual domains to a new server, I was given an out of the box Postfix/Dovecot/MySQL, similar release levels I've copied the sql database across, the new server seems OK (as far as I can tell (which is far from authoritative...)) I need to transfer a virtual domain, (I though I knew how to do it, done it before....) what's the correct procedure to tell old server to relay to new server? I set like in main.cf: (proper is as 111.111.111.111) dom.tld = smtp:[111.111.111.111] but, attempted inbound mails get a 550 5.5.1 from old server The error that the other server returned was: 550 5.1.1 <dom.tld>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in virtual mailbox table I thought that's how I've done last server transfer (what I'm trying to say, I thought I knew what I was doing, but, obviously don't) so how to relay a virtual domain to new server..? ============ old server ============ address_verify_sender = $double_bounce_sender alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases alias_maps =
