I'm not sure what I've done wrong, but aliases for virtual users is not working. A postmap -q <key> <map> returns what it should, but when I send a test message, the alias address is passed to the downstream system, instead of the result of the lookup.
I'm setting up Postfix as a frontend to Dovecot on another box, thus deliver is via LMTP. This works, Postfix maintains the list of valid addresses. I've followed http://www.postfix.org/VIRTUAL_README.html#virtual_mailbox (Non-Postfix mailbox store) or at least I've tried to follow it. :) virtual_transport = lmtp:192.168.7.61:24 virtual_mailbox_domains = hash:/opt/local/etc/postfix/maps/virtual-mailbox-domains virtual_mailbox_maps = hash:/opt/local/etc/postfix/maps/virtual-mailbox-users virtual_alias_maps = hash:/opt/local/etc/postfix/maps/virtual-mailbox-aliases [root@smtprelay /opt/local/etc/postfix/maps]# cat virtual-mailbox-domains philologer.com OK [root@smtprelay /opt/local/etc/postfix/maps]# cat virtual-mailbox-users # Enter here valid virtual mailboxes, only the LHS matters, postfix # ignores the right column c...@philologer.com whatever grandp...@philologer.com watever [root@smtprelay /opt/local/etc/postfix/maps]# cat virtual-mailbox-aliases # We can add aliases for virtual accounts in here postmas...@philologer.com grandp...@philologer.com webmas...@philologer.com grandp...@philologer.com hostmas...@philologer.com grandp...@philologer.com ab...@philologer.com grandp...@philologer.com r...@philologer.com grandp...@philologer.com 2014-08-24T16:19:40+00:00 localhost postfix/lmtp[43065]: [ID 197553 mail.info] 3hh1rW6x8YzFJg: to=<hostmas...@philologer.com>, relay=192.168.7.61[192.168.7.61]:24, delay=0.62, delays=0.54/0.02/0.03/0.04, dsn=5.1.1, status=bounced (host 192.168.7.61[192.168.7.61] said: 550 5.1.1 <hostmas...@philologer.com> User doesn't exist: hostmas...@philologer.com (in reply to RCPT TO command)) I'm looking for pointers to where I've gone wrong.
