 Hi Folks,
 
 As many of you will probably know, SPF breaks forwarding using aliases. 
 The solution is to re-write the from-evenlope when forwarding email.
 
 Does anyone know how to do this with postfix?

With an external MILTER program (Postfix = 2.6): 
http://www.postfix.org/MILTER_README.html

Or with an external content filter (Postfix = 1.0):
http://www.postfix.org/FILTER_README.html

Thanks for the reply.

Are you aware of any Postfix implementations?

Please, don't top-post.  And there is no Postfix implementation; that is
why you need to find/use a milter or external content filter.

Postfix implements SPF SRS DKIM DomainKeys SenderID BATV and so on
exclusively via plugins. Just like Postfix implements deep content
inspection.

I don't bake my own bread, and I don't make my own shoes or clothes.
Instead, I get them from people who specialize in doing such things.

This is how society has been making progress for thousands of years.
I expect that this approach is also good for the Internet.

Yes, I understand that we have to use Milters and/or external plugins 
made by other people. I just can't find any that show me how to make it 
work with Postfix.

See the Postfix documentation for how to connect a plugin to Postfix,
and for how to configure the mail server features that the plugin
requires.

http://www.postfix.org/FILTER_README.html has examples for very
ancient versions of DKIM and SenderID plugins.

Generally, documentation that covers components from different
providers is either outdated by several years or has major errors.

Your best bet is to read the *current* docs of the individual
packages and to put A plus B together (or pay someone for the job,
but that won't be me).
