    Hi, I have a problem sending emails to some domains that are not the most famous like gmail, hotmail, etc.

    Here is my config:

    /etc/postfix/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.  The Debian default
    # is /etc/mailname.
    #myorigin = /etc/mailname
    
    smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMTP $mail_name (Ubuntu)
    biff = no
    
    # appending .domain is the MUA's job.
    append_dot_mydomain = no
    
    # Uncomment the next line to generate "delayed mail" warnings
    #delay_warning_time = 4h
    
    readme_directory = no
    
    # TLS parameters
    smtpd_tls_cert_file = /etc/postfix/ssl/smtpd.crt
    smtpd_tls_key_file = /etc/postfix/ssl/smtpd.key
    smtpd_use_tls = yes
    smtpd_tls_session_cache_database = btree:${data_directory}/smtpd_scache
    smtp_tls_session_cache_database = btree:${data_directory}/smtp_scache
    
    # See /usr/share/doc/postfix/TLS_README.gz in the postfix-doc package for
    # information on enabling SSL in the smtp client.
    
    myhostname = xxxxxx.yyyyyy.com
    alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
    alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
    myorigin = /etc/mailname
    mydestination = xxxxxx.yyyyyy.com, localhost.yyyyyy.com, , localhost
    relayhost =
    mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8 [::ffff:127.0.0.0]/104 [::1]/128
    mailbox_command =
    mailbox_size_limit = 0
    recipient_delimiter = +
    inet_interfaces = all
    inet_protocols = all
    smtpd_sasl_local_domain =
    smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes
    smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
    broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes
    smtpd_sasl_authenticated_header = yes
    smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated,permit_mynetworks,reject_unauth_destination
    smtpd_tls_auth_only = yes
    smtp_use_tls = yes
    smtp_tls_note_starttls_offer = yes
    smtpd_tls_CAfile = /etc/postfix/ssl/cacert.pem
    smtpd_tls_loglevel = 1
    smtpd_tls_received_header = yes
    smtpd_tls_session_cache_timeout = 3600s
    tls_random_source = dev:/dev/urandom
    home_mailbox = Maildir/
    
    virtual_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtusertable
    
    mydestination = /etc/postfix/local-host-names
    relay_domains = $mydestination
    
    And the error

    Code:
    Feb 29 15:42:30 xxxxxx postfix/local[24414]: 2B5179AE11C: to=<[email protected]>, relay=local, delay=0.17, delays=0.11/0.04/0/0.03, dsn=5.1.1, status=bounced (unknown user: "david")
    I'm trying to send an email from [email protected] to [email protected]

    Any idea why say "unknown user: david" ? I can send emails to gmail without problems!

    Regards and thanks in advanced!

    It seems as if zzzzzzzz.com is alocal domain on your server according to the errormessage. Have you created zzzzzzzz.com as domain in ispconnfig ot is zzzzzzzz.com in the file /etc/mailname?

    zzzzzzzz.com is an email from google apps, but I tried to another domain not hosted in my server like zurich.com and I have the same error...

    A not have any idea that happens :(

    Please post a bigger snippet of the mail log that contains also the lines before the error line. And if you anonymize the log, make sure that you anonymize a email address or domain in all lines with the same chars.

    DOMAIN_SRC is a domain host in my server and DOMAIN_DEST is a domain with google apps but does not work with anothers domains like Zurich.com.

    Please check if the MX record of the destination domain points to the correct server.

    Sorry for the delay.

    The destination domains (zurich.com for example) are not hosted in my server.

    So you send to a remote server (not your own one) and get a "user unknown" error? Then that's a problem of the remote server.

    Sure? I can sen to another domains with my gmail account. And the unknown user error is for my login, for example, if I try to send and email from [email protected] to [email protected], the unknow user is "david".

    I dont understand why happens... but I think that is a problem of my server config :(

    That's not true.

    Since the mail is TO: david@DOMAIN_DEST.com the problem is in the server hosting DOMAIN_DEST.com. You say this domain is not hosted in your server, therefore the problem is not in your server.

    I still have the same problem sending unicef.org not really know I can do to fix the problem. It seems I can only send emails to domains recognized as google, yahoo, hotmail, etc..

    I think it is problem of my server configuration, any advice?

    Please post the relevant lines from the Postfix log without any change.

    If you are afraid of privacy issues you could send the log via private message.

    Another idea: Send a mail to me (postmaster at no-fun.de) and I'll analyse the rejection from my side.

    After some investigation it turned out that he was caught by a leftover from ISPConfig 2, i.e.

    Code:
    mydestination = /etc/postfix/local-host-names
    After removing that line everything works as expected.

    The problem here is that he is hosting domains on his server for which he does not handle the mails, i.e. the A record is different from the MX record. The file local-host-names lists all local http domains but should never be used to specify mail domains.
