You would create a transport map file, say /etc/postfix/transport. Add entries for the domains you want to limit and assign them to a transport name, let's say lamdomains yahoo.com lamedomains: You need to then run: postmap /etc/postfix/transport Then in the postfix main.cf, add lines to tell it about the transport and to tell it that anything in that transport has the recipient limit. transport_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/transport lamedomains_destination_recipient_limit = 5 So now you've created a transport, put some domains in it, changed the default behavior of postfix for that transport, you just need to tell postfix what to do with that transport (aka, deliver it with smtp). Add a line to master.cf: lamedomains unix - - - - - smtp Now tell postfix to reload it's config: postfix reload Again, I haven't tested this, so you mean need to read man pages and play with that a little, but that should set a postfix user in the right direction -Shawn
