Hi,
We have set up one (of many) mailing lists using Postfix / LDAP as an alias.
In one case, one of the members of the mailing list, has tried to send a
message to the mailing list and it was delivered fine to all other
members except to his own mail address:
<[email protected]> (expanded from <[email protected]>): host
correoe1.uma.es[150.214.47.230] said: 554 5.7.1
<[email protected]>:

replyto RCPTTO command)

Remote-MTA: dns; correoe1.uma.es
Diagnostic-Code: smtp; 554 5.7.1 <[email protected]>: Sender

This does not seem to have happened in other cases that I know of.
Can you please suggest a reason of this rejection or suggest a way to
further investigate?
The error message is not meaningful to me (and an Internet search did
not help me).
The full log from the server is:

Although IMHO it should not be of any importance to resolve this case,
the alias is set up (in LDAP) as follows:
dn: cn=project-wp2,ou=Aliases,dc=noa,dc=gr
objectClass: maillist
owner: cn=AstroAdmins,ou=Groups,dc=noa,dc=gr
mailacceptinggeneralid: [email protected]
cn: project-wp2
maildrop: [email protected]
maildrop: [email protected]
maildrop: ...
Please advise.
Thanks in advance,
Nick
