Very well spotted ! This is indeed the source of the mail rejection behavior that I have reported on when using a locally-hosted mail accounts on the same VPS which also hosts Mailman. The 'postconf -d' command output shows the following default setting : alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases, nis:mail.aliases local_recipient_maps = proxy:unix:passwd.byname $alias_maps The 'postconf -n' command output shows the following (re)specified setting : alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases, hash:/etc/mailman/aliases local_recipient_maps = unix:passwd.byname For some unclear reason, in the distribution we are using the '$allias_maps' parameter had been removed from the 'local_recipient_maps' setting in the Postfix 'main.cf' configuration file. After redefining the line as "local_recipient_maps = unix:passwd.byname $alias_maps" and doing a few test, it appears that we can now successfully use local mail accounts in relation with Mailman. >> or simply removing that line from main.cf and see if that helps. No need to do that as the above corrective action did fully resolve the problem.

The dovecot LDA does not use your aliases. Delivery to Mailman must be via the local LDA. Something in your Postfix configuration is telling it to relay this particular mail via the dovecot transport rather than the local transport. That's why it bounces. The question is what's causing it. I suspect it has to do with two things in your Postfix configuration: local_recipient_maps = unix:passwd.byname and virtual_transport = dovecot By default, local_recipient_maps includes $alias_maps, and I *think* it should in your case. Why this lack would cause Postfix to use the virtual_transport rather than local in just this one case is really a question for postfix-us...@postfix.org or some other Postfix resource, but you might try local_recipient_maps = unix:passwd.byname $alias_maps or simply removing that line from main.cf and see if that helps. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
