Hello,
I set postfix (see
http://www.marzocchi.net/Olafsen/Software/OmniOSPostfixAndStunnel ) and it
seems it works well, that means I can send mail from the terminal and I will
get it correctly when I specify a complete address, and the same applies to
daemons that accept as parameter an email address, for example smartd.
However, if a daemon send mail to local users (typically root) for any reason,
I never get it.
I see in the /var/log/maillog a bunch of these messages (I don’t know which
service is sending them):

I can replicate them also by sending manually mail to either root or to my
user, without specifying the @ and the domain.
I tried to edit /etc/postfix/aliases by adding
root: exter...@marzocchi.net
and then I ran
/usr/local/bin/newaliases -oAhash:/etc/postfix/aliases
(I tried also dbm, just to be sure)
but nothing.
mailq is empty.
In main.cf, the custom settings are:
---
mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost
mynetworks_style = host
myhostname=myHostname.my3rdLevel.marzocchi.net
mydomain=my3rdLevel.marzocchi.net
myorigin=$mydomain

I checked the manual but after three hours I gave up and I ask you, I have no
idea about how to automatically forward mail for local users to external email
addresses.
Could you please help me?
Thanks!
Olaf Marzocchi
