I'm not sure about sending (I mean how to configure it on the server
side) but receiving to virtuall domains is easy. you can configure it
with webmin (there is a virtuall domain tab on the postfix
configuration) or edit derectly /etc/postfix/virtual.

Good Luck

[expert] Help with postfix and virtual hosts

2001-09-22 Thread Dan Axtell

Hello all,

a couple of years ago I set up a small server with a few virtual IP
address, sort of like:

mainone.com -- has a MX record in DNS
alternate.org -- has no MX record in DNS.

I had set up qmail with virtual hosting and was able to send and receive
email from accounts at "alternate.org" without a problem, although I
remember it taking a while to figure out how to do it!

Now I've replaced the machine and upgraded to LM 8.0, but I can't get
qmail to work.  Postfix seems a lot simpler to configure, and it works
right with "mainone.com", which has the MX record in DNS.

I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to do virtual domains so that I
can send/receive from "alternate.org" like I could with qmail, or do I
have to get the DNS record changed for alternate.org to add an MX record.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Dan
