There is no need for an extra Postfix instance.
You want, but this cannot work:
recipient_bcc_maps
# BCC expansion for the alias-expanded recipient
[email protected] [email protected]
virtual_alias_maps:
# alias the recipient
[email protected] [email protected]
# Add user2's BCC addreses
[email protected] [email protected], [email protected]
Instead do this:
virtual_alias_maps:
# alias the recipient
[email protected] [email protected]
# Add user2's BCC addreses
[email protected] [email protected], [email protected],
[email protected]
This will alias [email protected] to [email protected],
AND ALSO BCC all mail for [email protected] to [email protected]
and [email protected].
The trick is in the second rule: to add multiple BCC addresses for
[email protected], list [email protected] on both sides of
the virtual_alias_maps rule.
