    Hi,
    We're trying to do away with our old domain and start using a new one. I've forwarded all the email from the old domain to the new one, everything has been working fine but now i seem to be getting this error.

    is this the same domain that you get when you run the commad:

    hostname

    or

    hostname.f

    or is this domain listed somewhere in /etc/postfix/main.cf file?

    yes and it is listed in /etc/postfix/main.cf

    Please change the hostname of the server and all occurrences of this domain in main.cf file to a subdomain. Use e.g. server1.yordomain.com instead of yourdomain.com. A domain that you want to use for email with virtual users may not be used as hostname of the server nor may it be listed in postfix main.cf. Then restart the server.
