Just installed latest ISPConfig onto Ubuntu Server 12.04 according to "The Perfect Server - Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Apache2, BIND, Dovecot, ISPConfig 3)". When trying to send email to my new email domain, I get the following Mail delivery System error email from my sending email provider: Code: This is the mail system at host mx-caprica.easydns.com.

Does anyone have any further suggestions?
HI twgray, Please add FQDN to mydestination to the mydestination line in /etc/postfix/main.cf and restart Postfix: Br// Srijan
As I stated in my post, I already tried that...and just to be sure, I just tried it again...and it gives the same responder error.
The fqdn may not be listed in mydestination, this is causing this problem. Please remove it from there. You may not list a domain in mydestination on a postfix virtual user setup that shall be used for mailboxes. Then check /etc/mailname, the domain may not be listed there as well. in all 3 places: myhostname, mydestination and /etc/mailname you will have to use the hostame of the server (server1.frankensteins-lab.com) and not (frankensteins-lab.com), then restart postfix.
till, the fqdn is server1.frankensteins-lab.com, and myhostname, mydestination, and /etc/mailname are set to that, already. I have made a bit of progress...I can now send email, but the problem mentioned above still exists when I try to send email to any user at this domain.

OK, I've done everything I can think to do, with the exception of singing to it and my all incoming email is bounced due to "Postfix mail for example.com loops back to myself". I've made sure that /etc/mailname is set to server1.exampe.com. I've made sure that mydestination and myhostname are set to server1.example.com, as per till's recommendation, and the problem persists. Any further suggestions are appreciated!
For others searching for a solution to this problem, I resolved it by removing the FQDN from mydestination Code: mydestination = localhost, localhost.localdomain
Yes! Thank-you. This still applies (postfix 2.11.0-1ubuntu1) and solved my problem. To be able to forward mail with virtual aliases from my domain.com and sub.domain.com I had to do this in main.cf: Code: myhostname = server.domain.com myorigin = domain.com mydestination = localhost virtual_alias_domains = domain.com sub.domain.com
