Since last week all incoming mail to my server gets internally forwarded to the same address. this is what happens in the mail log Jan 23 13:40:30 server1 postfix/local[19854]: 8F7F311F4090: to=<[email protected]>, orig_to=<[email protected]>, relay=local, delay=7, delays=0.02/0/0/7, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered to command: /usr/bin/procmail -f-) Jan 23 13:40:30 server1 postfix/qmgr[1418]: 8F7F311F4090: removed Jan 23 13:40:42 server1 imapd: Connection, ip=[::ffff:80.69.93.79] Jan 23 13:40:42 server1 imapd: LOGIN, user=info, ip=[::ffff:80.69.93.79], protocol=IMAP Jan 23 13:40:42 server1 imapd: LOGOUT, user=info, ip=[::ffff:80.69.93.79], headers=20, body=0, rcvd=257, sent=11787, time=0, starttls=1 Jan 23 13:40:52 server1 postfix/smtpd[14227]: connect from 5ac26425.bb.sky.com[90.194.100.37] Jan 23 13:40:52 server1 postfix/smtpd[14227]: setting up TLS connection from 5ac26425.bb.sky.com[90.194.100.37] Jan 23 13:40:52 server1 postfix/smtpd[14227]: Anonymous TLS connection established from 5ac26425.bb.sky.com[90.194.100.37]: TLSv1 with cipher AES128-SHA (128/128 bits)
1) Make sure that you dont have a alias for abc in /etc/aliases. 2)Make sure that you dont use the same domain for email addresses that is used in /etc/postfix/main.cf as mydomain or myhostname.
myhostname myhostname was set to oneofmydomains.com I have changed this to server1.example.com restarted postfix "/etc/init.d/postfix restart" restarted the server "shutdown -r now" but the mail is still delivered to the same inbox.
The entry mydomain is not in the config file of postfix. I added it with a value of example.com which is not the same as any other domains on the server and restarted postfix and the problem is still the same. this is the log file for that moment.
