Attached is the postconf -n
I've also been reading the link that Dr. Venema sent me. Could it be that the
mydestination is incorrect? Could it be:
mydestination = timothyxxxx.com, localhost.localdomain, localhost
myhostname = timothylegg.com
I haven't tried that yet, but I'm willing to try anything at this point.
I'm documenting the steps I'm doing as I set this up. I'm writing a howto
document for this on wordpress to help out the next guy trying this out. I've
been pretty disappointed with the quality of documents people have written so
far for Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Many claim to work, but actually don't nor do they
include steps for testing your progress.
Yeah, my domain name is semi-munged. Just munged enough to fool most search
engines. I don't mind if humans figure it out.
Thank you very much.

he has, as he showed extracts of his logs showing the mails hitting his server

Anyway, given that we know the OP's name, it isn't hard to guess what the
semi-munged domain of 'timothyxxxx.com' really is :-) A little test with dig
and telnet does, indeed, return the outcome that he gave us. So it's almost
certainly a Postfix configuration error, not a DNS configuration error. > As
others have said, we need postconf -n Indeed. Mark -- My blog:
