Make sure the final target domain is listed in 'mydestination' in
/etc/postfix/main.cf and that 'mydomain' is also set correctly. A
typical main.cf file might have something like this (among other
entries):
mydomain = mydomain.tld
myhostname = myhost.mydomain.tld
mydestination = $myhostname, $mydomain, localhost
Don't forget to do a 'postfix reload' after making any changes.
