Mail forwarding with postfix problem

linoskoczek · 07-23-2013, 06:31 PM

Hello!

I'd like to set up mail forwarding on my virtual Debian server. I've installed postfix and everything seemed to be fine. I sent a test message on my normal e-mail and it worked. The problem has began when I wanted to forward mails. I was following this tutorial, but forwarding doesn't work.

I've checked /var/log/mail.log and I've found one suspicious line:

Code:

Jul 23 23:19:56 vz13820 postfix/trivial-rewrite[9542]: warning: do not list domain e-cat.tk in BOTH mydestination and virtual_alias_domains

Here are my settings from /etc/postfix/main.cf

Code:

myhostname = e-cat.tk
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
virtual_alias_domains = e-cat.tk
virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual
myorigin = /etc/mailname
mydestination = e-cat.tk, vz13820, localhost.localdomain, localhost
relayhost =
mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8 [::ffff:127.0.0.0]/104 [::1]/128
mailbox_size_limit = 0

So what I should edit in main.cf file? I was following this tutorial while setting postfix and I did like it was written.

Could you give me any solution for this problem?

Well as per that doc, the virtual_alias configuration is only for other domains, not your actual local domain, so just remove those entries, and it should be OK.

Thank you for answer.
I've changed it and I don't have such error in mail.log like before.

Now I've got:

Code:

I recived message on same mail account from which I sent a test mail with such error:

Code:

<test@e-cat.tk>: host mail.e-cat.tk[91.228.198.252] said: 550 5.1.1
    <test@e-cat.tk>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local
    recipient table (in reply to RCPT TO command)

My /etc/postfix/virtual

Code:

root@e-cat.tk mymail@mail.com
test@e-cat.tk mymail@mail.com
test mymail@mail.com

(2x 'test' because I wanted to be sure)

Do I need to create a user "test"?

Other thing, mail which was sent correctly to "root" still isn't forwarded to my e-mail. What may be wrong now?

mail.log just when I sent message to 'root@e-cat.tk':

Code:

The mail is delivered, but not forwarded as I said.
