I just installed postfix and configured it for sending mails to [email protected] on local machine. But when I send mail throught command "echo test | sendmail [email protected]". It says in /var/log/messages: Code: Aug 8 05:03:59 elizabeth postfix/pickup[3028]: 915DF395A7: uid=0 from=<root> Aug 8 05:03:59 elizabeth postfix/cleanup[3041]: 915DF395A7: message-id=<20140808030359.915DF395A7@elizabeth> Aug 8 05:03:59 elizabeth postfix/qmgr[3029]: 915DF395A7: from=<[email protected]>, size=262, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Aug 8 05:03:59 elizabeth postfix/error[3033]: 915DF395A7: to=<[email protected]>, relay=none, delay=0.03, delays=0.03/0/0/0.01, dsn=4.1.1, status=SOFTBOUNCE (User unknown in virtual alias table) main.cf: Code: soft_bounce = yes queue_directory = /var/spool/postfix command_directory = /usr/sbin daemon_directory = /usr/libexec/postfix data_directory = /var/lib/postfix mail_owner = postfix unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 550 mynetworks_style = host recipient_delimiter = + debug_peer_level = 2 debugger_command = PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin ddd $daemon_directory/$process_name $process_id & sleep 5 sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail newaliases_path = /usr/bin/newaliases mailq_path = /usr/bin/mailq setgid_group = postdrop html_directory = no manpage_directory = /usr/share/man sample_directory = /etc/postfix readme_directory = no inet_protocols = ipv4 home_mailbox = .maildir/ virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual virtual_mailbox_base = /var/vmail smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = no broken_sasl_auth_clients = no smtpd_sasl_authenticated_header = no smtpd_use_tls = no smtpd_client_message_rate_limit = 100 maildrop_destination_concurrency_limit = 1 maildrop_destination_recipient_limit = 1 virtual_transport = maildrop header_checks = regexp:/etc/postfix/header_checks mime_header_checks = regexp:/etc/postfix/mime_header_checks nested_header_checks = regexp:/etc/postfix/nested_header_checks body_checks = regexp:/etc/postfix/body_checks inet_interfaces = all myhostname = elizabeth mydomain = elizabeth.biosh0ck.org mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8 [::1]/128 receive_override_options = no_address_mappings relayhost = mailbox_size_limit = 0 message_size_limit = 0 virtual: Code: elizabeth.biosh0ck.org root [email protected] root (edit) /etc/aliases: Code: postmaster: root root: localuser localuser: [email protected] /etc/hosts: Code: 127.0.0.1 elizabeth.biosh0ck.org elizabeth eliz 127.0.0.1 localhost ::1 localhost After changes a I ran command postmap /etc/postfix/virtual and /etc/init.d/postfix restart Domain biosh0ck.org is virtual. Can someone tell me why it says "unknown user"? Any help is welcomed. I'm new to mail servers/postfix.
Thanks for the reply. But nothing changes, still "User unknown in virtual alias table". /etc/aliases: Code: postmaster: root root: localuser localuser: [email protected]
