I tried this and it works: I can now post to the site list.
If this creates valid files, will Postfix start using the new versions immediately, or do I need to do something else to draw its attention to the changes?
After updating transport.db and virtual.db, and before posting, I ran newaliases just in case, with the result that now I don't know whether that step was necessary.
I'm guessing this means that Plesk creates the .db files directly without using text files. Ugh. Now I wonder, if I use postalias to update the .db files after editing my newly created text files, will Plesk eventually overwrite my work, say the next time I create a mailbox or an e-mail alias? I guess the way to find out is to try.
I tried this too, creating a new alias for my catchall box after my first successful post. A second post arrived with no trouble, and examining the .db files with postmap shows they are as they should be. So at any rate Plesk doesn't throw away data it finds in those files that it didn't put there.
