okay, I have Ubuntu Linux 8.04.3 LTS Postfix Dovecot The server has been up and running since mid NOV. and running well. But I have one issue that I know of. Mail Warn log warning: do not list domain domain.net in BOTH mydestination and virtual_alias_domains It also has a duplicate listing for another domain on the server, but only the two report on this log as entries I have been working on this for a week(not solid) and if remove domain.net, as well as the other domain, it will bounce the emails to those domains. with <[email protected]> (expanded from <[email protected]>): User unknown in virtual alias table I have tried several things, and just can't seem to figure it out. With this being my first linux period, lett alone web server, I am afraid I do not have the experience. Everytime I create a new user(through virtualmin) it actually creates two. [email protected]+XX-domain.net This may be a non issue, but again, I don't know. My main.cf: # 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.

If possible I would like to fix this and not just start all over. It is in production as we speak Thanks S
What are the outputs of Code: postconf -n | grep virtual_alias_domains and Code: postconf -d | grep virtual_alias_domains ?
output files postconf -n | grep virtual_alias_domains -No output- postconf -d | grep virtual_alias_domains $local_recipient_maps $mydestination $virtual_alias_maps $virtual_alias_domains $virtual_mailbox_maps $virtual_mailbox_domains $relay_recipient_maps $relay_domains $canonical_maps $sender_canonical_maps $recipient_canonical_maps $relocated_maps $transport_maps $mynetworks virtual_alias_domains = $virtual_alias_maps Thanks for the reply --S
Please try this: add the line Code: [email protected] info-beckteck.net to /etc/postfix/virtual, run Code: postmap /etc/postfix/virtual , remove beckteck.net from the mydestination line in /etc/postfix/main.cf and restart Postfix.
Had no effect, still get a undeliverable mail reply to the sender. This server will add @domain.net to all incoming mail to some but not all domains if they are not listed in the main.cf. it will add to at least two out of four. Thanks Scott

there was another error that I found in the mail.err log Dec 21 09:07:33 btwebserver postfix/postmap[7861]: fatal: open /etc/postfix/virtual.db: Permission denied
According to http://bliki.rimuhosting.com/space/knowledgebase/linux/mail/postfix+notes: Missing virtual.db File Getting an error like: fatal: open database /etc/postfix/virtual.db: No such file or directory warning: process /usr/libexec/postfix/smtpd pid 27552 exit status 1 warning: /usr/libexec/postfix/smtpd: bad command startup -- throttling Then you need to create virtual.db file. Run postmap virtual from /etc/postfix. IIRC RHEL4's postfix startup script re-creates the virtual.db file so you should not hit this unless you are on some other distro (e.g. Debian?) [/INDENT]
Good News I think I have it figured out on the main.cf and virtual I logged into webmin and went to the postfix config. found this Rewrite "user" to "user@$mydomain" it was set to yes. I set it to no, commented out my old $mydestination and put in new mydestination = btwebserver, localhost, localhost.beckteck.net Thank you for everything on this, I may come back for some more issues, and will mark this solved after a few days of no issues Thanks a lot guys
