Ok, so I think I did what you said I should but it's not working. Probably because I did NOT setup: smtp_generic_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/generic because it's not really clear what I need there, since do my lookups via NIS aliases, and thne forward to the location specified. So right now what happens is: mail -> mailhost-new (postfix) -> hdqmta -> mailhost (orig) -> hdqmta -> back to me via Lotus notes forward. See how it's going a double loop, where the old mailhost is re-writing the envelope properly. According to the headers, postfix is doing the masquerading. I've setup my /etc/postfix transport_maps like this: # # Added to make lotus notes and exchange happy # hdqmta.foo.bar.com hdqmta exmail1.foo.bar.com exmail1 But it's not working. I've setup stuff like you suggested in master.cf: # # TAEC # hdqmta unix - - n - - smtp -o smtp_generic_maps=hash:/etc/postfix/generic_hdqmta exmail1 unix - - n - - smtp -o smtp_generic_maps=hash:/etc/postfix/generic_exmail1 But I do NOT have the smtp_generic_maps setup at all, because I need to re-write @foo.bar.com to @hdqmta.foo.bar.com or @exmail1.foo.bar.com depending on transport. Gah!!! Sorry if I'm being dense here, I know I'm trying to do something that's not quite the normal thing here. Would it be smarter for me to split up things into multiple relay servers instead? Dunno... John
