Hello,
My name is Shane, and I am having a problem that has baffled me for a
week. I recently purchased a new VPS to host my websites on, and
installed postfix, among other things. I am primarily using mysql
lookups and aliases (the only mailbox I have defined is for testing
purposes). I configure the SQL with postfixadmin. Originally, I had
the code working. This was late in the evening, so I'm not sure what I
did, but I eventually went to bed and didn't touch the server for a
few days (life got busy).
When I came back to try things, I found out that none of the mail I
sent to these addresses was being delivered. Originally, the error was
that the address could not be found in the virtual users table, but I
fixed this by adding to the mydestination parameter.
Now the problem is that postfix accepts the mail (via telnet sessions
both remotely and locally), but doesn't deliver it to the alias or the
mailbox.
I hope that explanation made sense to you. Any help you could provide
would be awesome, thanks.
Here's postconf -n:

(P.S: In another problem which si probably my stupidity, I can't for
the life of me find the program logs)
Sincerely Yours,
