I have Postfix 2.11.0 with virtual domains in mysql/postfixadmin, all
working well, as per setup below

user of the mydom.tld.au has also registered mydom.tld (to prevent
cybersquating)

sometimes they make mistakes and attempt to send emails to
a_u...@mydom.tld RATHER THAN (correct email) a_u...@mydom.tld.au

what is correct way/correct terminology to 'alias' (?) mydom.tld to
mydom.tld.au ?


You have to have a 1-1 mapping for each valid user.

Postfixadmin (sql based administrative tool for managing email user 
accounts for postfix) supports domain aliases out of the box (does the 
1-1 user mapping with SQL magic)...

Charles,

thanks !

so I simply duplicate and point MX record at the mail host, and, jump to

https://mailhost/postfixadmin/create-alias-domain.php?target_domain=mydom.com

Mirror addresses of one of your domains to another.
Alias Domain:   The domain that mails come in for.
Target Domain:  The domain where mails should go

(I've used it in the past, wanted to make sure that's the 'correct' way to
go, thanks again)

I actually have never needed to use the feature (just aware that it is 
there), but yes, that looks correct to me...
