I am having issues forwarding emails received to virtual user accounts. The log shows the messages are received and forwarded, but I am not receiving the forwarded emails. I have scoured the forums trying to find if there is a fix for the issue, but I haven't come up with a solution. I have made sure my mail server is not backlisted, which it is not. The server sends and receives email without issues. I appreciate any insight/answers. Here is an example of the server receiving the email to the virtual user account and forwarding it to my gmail account. Code: Jan 13 11:27:57 server1 postfix/smtpd[15204]: connect from yw-out-1718.google.com[74.125.46.153] Jan 13 11:27:57 server1 postfix/smtpd[15204]: 87FA0A9A381: client=yw-out-1718.google.com[74.125.46.153] Jan 13 11:27:57 server1 postfix/cleanup[15208]: 87FA0A9A381: message-id=<[email protected]> Jan 13 11:27:57 server1 postfix/qmgr[14150]: 87FA0A9A381: from=<[email protected]>, size=2010, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Jan 13 11:27:57 server1 postfix/pickup[14148]: A22CBA9A3AD: uid=10020 from=<domain.com_user> Jan 13 11:27:57 server1 postfix/cleanup[15208]: A22CBA9A3AD: message-id=<[email protected]> Jan 13 11:27:57 server1 postfix/local[15209]: 87FA0A9A381: to=<[email protected]>, orig_to=<[email protected]>, relay=local, delay=0.15, delays=0.11/0.01/0/0.03, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered to command: /usr/bin/procmail -f-) Jan 13 11:27:57 server1 postfix/cleanup[15216]: A49F1A9A3B5: message-id=<[email protected]> Jan 13 11:27:57 server1 postfix/qmgr[14150]: A22CBA9A3AD: from=<[email protected]>, size=458, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Jan 13 11:27:57 server1 postfix/local[15209]: 87FA0A9A381: to=<[email protected]>, orig_to=<[email protected]>, relay=local, delay=0.18, delays=0.11/0.01/0/0.06, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (forwarded as A49F1A9A3B5) Jan 13 11:27:57 server1 postfix/qmgr[14150]: A49F1A9A3B5: from=<[email protected]>, size=2178, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Jan 13 11:27:57 server1 postfix/qmgr[14150]: 87FA0A9A381: removed Jan 13 11:27:57 server1 postfix/local[15209]: A22CBA9A3AD: to=<[email protected]>, relay=local, delay=0.07, delays=0.04/0/0/0.03, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered to command: /usr/bin/procmail -f-) Jan 13 11:27:57 server1 postfix/qmgr[14150]: A22CBA9A3AD: removed Jan 13 11:27:59 server1 postfix/smtp[15218]: A49F1A9A3B5: to=<[email protected]>, orig_to=<[email protected]>, relay=gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com[74.125.45.27]:25, delay=2.1, delays=0.02/0.02/0.44/1.6, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 2.0.0 OK 1231864079 4si3956402yxq.36) Jan 13 11:27:59 server1 postfix/qmgr[14150]: A49F1A9A3B5: removed virtual users table Code: [email protected] domain.com_user [email protected] domain.com_user [email protected] domain.com_user [email protected] domain.com_user
ok, I found something that could be related to the error. I sent a test email from another virtual user account which correctly forwarded through postfix and was received by 3 accounts. Each account showed the email was sent from [email protected]. Apparently I must have missed something some where.
Are you trying to forward to external addresses, or also to addresses that are on the same server? What's in your main.cf? (Are you using ISPConfig?)
Yes, I am trying to forward both internally and externally. And, yes, I am using ispconfig. main.cf Code: # See /usr/share/postfix/main.cf.dist for a commented, more complete version # Debian specific: Specifying a file name will cause the first # line of that file to be used as the name.

And which ones do not arrive? The forwards to the internal or to the external addresses, or both? Do you have SPF records for your domains?
