So updating mailer.conf got rid of sendmail. So now I need to move to
the next step which is to understand what the resulting messages are

Now I am at a loss as to how to mix real and virtual users. I am
using postfixadmin to manage my virtual user database and it does not
allow me to add a localhost domain as I mentioned with my initial
post. Agin I tried ‘localhost.’ thinking that might cover the ‘x.x’ edit.
It looks like what you need is something to alias xxxx@localhost to
x...@mail.white-home.net? Or perhaps what would be more useful is
aliasing xxxx@/anything/ to x...@mail.white-home.net? If so I'd suggest
having a look at virtual_alias_maps?
I'm thinking something along the lines of...
In main.cf:
virtual_alias_domains =
virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual
In /etc/postfix/virtual:
xxxx x...@mail.white-home.net
(And don't forget to run "postmap hash:/etc/postfix/virtual".)
I seem to recall there is a bit more to this, including checking that
myorigin is set, but hopefully that will get you heading in the right
direction?
Nick.
