Hi, I'm using postfix 2.5.7 and having some trouble with the server
domain being appended to incomplete sender addresses. I have set
# postconf|grep -e rewrite -e append -e myorigin -e mydomain -e local_header
append_at_myorigin = yes
append_dot_mydomain = no
local_header_rewrite_clients =
Note: local_***HEADER***_rewrite_clients, a feature that
controls how HEADER address are rewritten.
Fair enough - can you please help correct my config given the original
goal of avoiding incomplete email addresses having a domain
automatically appended?
To clarify the question - the goal is if someone connects via the
network (not local sendmail command) and the transcript says "RCPT TO:
<asdf>" that this is subsequently bounced as being an invalid
recipient. What is happening at present is that it's being translated
to "a...@mydomain.com" and being delivered to that recipient (I accept
that I can reject this during the smtp conversation, and this is done on
our main configuration, but I have a subset of customers for which I
must accept this email and *bounce* it later)
I suspect that it's necessary to set "append_at_myorigin=no" ? However,
the documentation warns of this being an unsupported configuration? Can
you please explain the correct way to achieve this configuration (surely
it's a fairly normal configuration for mailservers these days?)
However, note the docs for append_at_myorigin says that addresses have
$remote_header_rewrite_domain appended and this is blank in my config?
So I am still unsure why something is getting appended at all?
I'm reasonably sure this configuration worked as desired with an earlier
version of Postfix?
Thanks
