answering my own question
okay,.. I set up a generic map on my smtp relay
smtp_generic_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/generic
[email protected] [email protected]
when the message arrives it is delivered to "host1" and host1 sends the message
to host2.
How can I get the smtp relay to " not forward to host1 " but deliver directly
to host2. Do I need to setup transport also ?
