Hello list,

I have setup Postfix with virtual users and MySQL. I have a few domains and they all work great. I also added and alias "r...@example.com" and sending a mail to the local root account results in a message in the forwarding inbox (perfect).

However, when sending mail to the local postmaster account, an error occurs (unknown user). The aliases file contains "postmaster: root", and I assumed the following chain to work "postmater (local) --> root (local) --> r...@example.com (virtual)". This is not the case.

How is the correct way to forward local e-mail to a virtual user? I like the previously mentioned idea, that the local root account is virtually aliases, and therefore the chain postmaster --> root --> virtual would work. Is this possible?

Thank you!

PPS: In my main.cf: mydestination = localhost, localhost.localdomain
