Hi all,
I'm using Postfix 2.9.6 in Debian Wheezy.
My problem is: if I send an email to some invalid address of another
domain, the bounce returned by Postfix does NOT contain the original
invalid recipient address.
For example, the bounce is something like the following for gmail
recipients:
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
This is the mail system at host <myhostname>
I'm sorry to have to inform you that your message could not
be delivered to one or more recipients. It's attached below.
For further assistance, please send mail to postmaster.
If you do so, please include this problem report. You can
delete your own text from the attached returned message.
The mail system
: host
gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com[74.125.136.27] said: 550-5.1.1 The email account
that you tried to reach does not exist. Please try 550-5.1.1
double-checking the recipient's email address for typos or 550-5.1.1
unnecessary spaces. Learn more at 550 5.1.1

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> - gsmtp (in reply to RCPT TO command)
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Therefore, the sender can't figure out what has been the original recipient.
For some recipient domains, like Yahoo, the invalid address mentioned
in the SMTP dialog, which also reflected in the bounce mail.
By the way, what's wrong with my Postfix that does NOT mention the
invalid address and just tells: "could not be delivered to one or more
recipients" ?
Thank you all for your help.
