Postfix is trying to deliver some mail (not all) to me@this-workstation instead of to its own machine, and I can't see why. I've tried a couple of relay-host settings, but then I just get "warning: relayhost configuration problem" in the log, so relay-host is now back to its default value.

Can anyone see what I'm missing? (More of main.cf if needed.) -- Regards, Peter.
