This is a good point. I've noticed this and tried to find a way around the
problem with setting a default domain and creating an alias, but I've not been
able to get any configuration to work.
Sam, is there anyway/any possibility this can be fixed on a next release?
Thanks,
D

| Hello.

| Courier don't accept "Postmaster" as mailbox, as required
| by RFC 2821:
|
| Transcript:
|
| 220 localhost ESMTP
| HELO localhost
| 250 localhost Ok.
| MAIL FROM:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
| 250 Ok.
| RCPT TO:<Postmaster>
| 513 Syntax error.
| RCPT TO:<Postmaster@>
| 513 Syntax error.
| RCPT TO:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
| 513 Syntax error.
|
| RFC:
|
| According to RFC2821:
| 3.6:
| - The reserved mailbox name "postmaster" may be used in a RCPT
| command without domain qualification (see section 4.1.1.3) and
| MUST be accepted if so used.
|
| 4.1.1.3:
| "RCPT TO:" ("<Postmaster@" domain ">" / "<Postmaster>" / Forward-Path)
| [SP Rcpt-parameters] CRLF
|
| 4.5.1:
| > Any system that includes an SMTP server supporting mail relaying or
| > delivery MUST support the reserved mailbox "postmaster" as a case-
| > insensitive local name. This postmaster address is not strictly
| > necessary if the server always returns 554 on connection opening (as
| > described in section 3.1). The requirement to accept mail for
| > postmaster implies that RCPT commands which specify a mailbox for
| > postmaster at any of the domains for which the SMTP server provides
| > mail service, as well as the special case of "RCPT TO:<Postmaster>"
| > (with no domain specification), MUST be supported.
| >
| > SMTP systems are expected to make every reasonable effort to accept
| > mail directed to Postmaster from any other system on the Internet.
| > In extreme cases --such as to contain a denial of service attack or
| > other breach of security-- an SMTP server may block mail directed to
| > Postmaster. However, such arrangements SHOULD be narrowly tailored
| > so as to avoid blocking messages which are not part of such attacks.
