Hello. I'm using centos 9+Postfix+Dovecot. If a user manually uses the left-column "Mail Forward" option, no mail goes out. Not to the mailbox that receives it, nor to the mail that it suppose to forward to. However, if those forwards are Deleted and then the: Send copy to Copy during delivery options are selected in that mailbox's properties, it then works fine. The trouble is, the migration tool favored the Mail Forward option and I have lots of Mail Forward's already in place. What could cause the Mail Forward not to work at all?
The Migration Tool used the right option, which is forwarding during delivery in postfix. I have not seen this option fail on any system yet, so I can't tell you why it does not work on your server. Maybe something in CentOS 9 changed, I use only Debian and Ubuntu. You should take a look at the maillog file to see which error you get.
I am seeing things like this: Mar 10 10:04:26 latte postfix/cleanup[36057]: warning: 40F361000167D1: unreasonable virtual_alias_maps map nesting for [email protected] -- message not accepted, try again later Yes, they created loops
Oh, I always try to anonymize those things, it was siparis (at) pemsan.com. the server is latte.kalfaoglu.net they made forward loops at the old plesk server, and those were carried to the new server with the migration. like info@them -> someone@them (....) someone@them -> info@them
Ok so it was a unintentional misconfiguration on your side then i see. Thought there still was an issue and asked for the hostname because it is possible to set it to "domain.tld" and use domain.tld within aliasmaps which will cause issues like this.
