Package: postfix Version: 2.2.9-1 Followup-For: Bug #357294 Hello,
thinking twice about my configuration problems, I think the whole rewritting thing can be integrated into the debconf setup easily. I imagine somethink like: 1. Menu question: Assuming the mail addresses of the local users shall not be identical with those visible in outgoing mails. You can setup postfix to do automatic rewritting of address parts to preset different, valid addresses to the public. This can be done in different ways, please choose the one you need: * No rewritting needed, the local addresses are valid for public (1.1) * Keep the username part of the address but change the hostname (1.2) * Map complete addresses to different mail addresses (1.3) Resulting in following dialogs: 1.1: continue as usual 1.2: Text entry: Please enter the visual name of the domain which is responsible for the receival of local mails. Eg. specify "example.org" if the local users receive their mails trough example.org having the same name, so "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" would be rewritten to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]". 1.3: Text entry Please specify pairs of local user names and visible email addresses that should be presented to the public instead of local email addresses, separated by space. Example: "foo [EMAIL PROTECTED] baz [EMAIL PROTECTED]" There may be another dialog, asking whether the rewring applies, smtp only or others. When done, the setup it would create a table with given users/hosts, hash it as needed and integrate into config.
