Okay, I got syslogd running (and I now feel thurroughly stupid) Now here is the issue:
I had originally placed the domain name I'm attempting to send mail to in the mydestination parameter as well as adding it as a virtual domain. The net result was that it appears from this log that it assumes I'm refering to a "physical" mailbox: 67B7F244045B: to=<sh...@example.com>, relay=local, delay=23, delays=23/0/0/0.07, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered to mailbox) (As this is defined as an alias in the MySQL table, this is obviously not the desired result) I saw this message in the log: warning: do not list domain example.com in BOTH mydestination and virtual_mailbox_domains So I removed the domain from mydestination. Now, when I attempt to send mail (I'm doing it with Telnet because it's easier), I get the following: 550 5.1.1 <sh...@example.com>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in virtual mailbox table On 9/26/10, Dan Farrell <li...@danf.us> wrote: > If it's a VPS with root access and virtually no preconfigurations, you > may find that all you need to do is start some sort of syslog service. > Then your mail should show up in /var/log/<something> or a similar > location. > > Or perhaps you need to install syslog or configure it. > > Don't forget to add it to your init scripts once you get it running! > > On Sat, 25 Sep 2010 11:13:17 -0700 > joe <j...@tmsusa.com> wrote: > >> This is a question of basic familiarity with your operating system. >> If you would be so kind as to tell us what release of what operating >> system you're running, someone will be able to tell you off the top >> of their head how to find the logs. >> >> Jo >> >> On 09/25/2010 11:09 AM, Shane Dittmar wrote: >> > I noted this at the bottom of my message, but I've spent multiple >> > hours attempting to find said log with no results. >> > >> > On 9/25/10, Ralf Hildebrandt<ralf.hildebra...@charite.de> wrote: >> >> * Shane Dittmar<chatter8...@gmail.com>: >> >> >> >>> When I came back to try things, I found out that none of the mail >> >>> I sent to these addresses was being delivered.
