Amavis already does exactly that with LDAP, the stored list is basically
unused. I guess its not clear in the docs, but README.ldap, particulary
section "Special handling of the optional LDAP attribute 'amavisLocal'".
In essence if the recipient address (or domain) is found, and 'amavisLocal'
is not set or is set to 'true' it is considered local, you explicity have
to set 'amavisLocal' to 'false' to override being considered local.
We use:
@local_domains_maps =
( read_hash('/usr/local/etc/postfix/virtual_mailbox_domains') );
and amavis gets stopped/started at least once a day, which is good
enough for us as its not generally needed or used.
Unless the above behavior is not desireable or I'm misunderstanding
something I believe amavis already does the right thing and using LDAP
to populate a list/file doesn't achieve the final goal of who is local
or not.
