    Using ISPConfig, I set up a client, and a site, called "c2".

    ISPConfig has created entries for it in /etc/postfix/virtusertable:

    Looking at /var/log/mail, it seems like something (maybe amavis, I don't know)
    has rewritten the subdomain from c2.dddddd.com to gonzo.dddddd.com, i.e. from virtual to real. But there isn't a user c2
    at gonzo, only at c2, so it bounces - that's my theory.

    (Yes, I know the external relay isn't working either, but I'm not worried about that.)
    In all the text above, I've replaced my real domain name with "dddddd",
    but otherwise it's completely unedited.

    The question is, why is the address being rewritten?
    It makes it impossible to send email to the users I create.
    I don't particularly want it rewritten, and I don't know what I've done that
    might make that happen. Any ideas?

    Can you post the virtusertable again with the real domain names?
    What's in /etc/hosts?
    Is web5_c2 listed in /etc/passwd?

    OK, here's virtusertable:

    /etc/hosts is:


    #
    # hosts This file describes a number of hostname-to-address
    # mappings for the TCP/IP subsystem. It is mostly
    # used at boot time, when no name servers are running.
    # On small systems, this file can be used instead of a
    # "named" name server.
    # Syntax:

    #

    127.0.0.1 localhost

    # special IPv6 addresses
    ::1 localhost ipv6-localhost ipv6-loopback

    fe00::0 ipv6-localnet

    ff00::0 ipv6-mcastprefix
    ff02::1 ipv6-allnodes
    ff02::2 ipv6-allrouters
    ff02::3 ipv6-allhosts
    127.0.0.2 gonzo.banthewasp.com gonzo gonzo.home.banthewasp.com


    web5_c2 is listed in /etc/passwd, on the very last line
    (which doen not have a return character at the end - I don't know
    if that matters).
    The end of /etc/passwd looks like this:
    admispconfig:x:1003:1003:Administrator ISPConfig:/home/admispconfig:/bin/bash
    clamav:x:1004:1004:Clam AntiVirus:/home/clamav:/bin/false
    +::::::
    web5_c2:x:10005:10005:c2:/home/www/web5/user/web5_c2:/dev/null

    virtusertable and /etc/passwd are ok, but /etc/hosts isn't. 127.0.0.2 does not exist. Please change the file to

    Code:
    #
    # hosts This file describes a number of hostname-to-address
    # mappings for the TCP/IP subsystem. It is mostly
    # used at boot time, when no name servers are running.
    # On small systems, this file can be used instead of a
    # "named" name server.
    # Syntax:
    #
    # IP-Address Full-Qualified-Hostname Short-Hostname
    #
    
    127.0.0.1 localhost
     gonzo.banthewasp.com gonzo gonzo.home.banthewasp.com
    # special IPv6 addresses
    ::1 localhost ipv6-localhost ipv6-loopback
    
    fe00::0 ipv6-localnet
    
    ff00::0 ipv6-mcastprefix
    ff02::1 ipv6-allnodes
    ff02::2 ipv6-allrouters
    ff02::3 ipv6-allhosts
    Another problem: c2.banthewasp.com doesn't exist in DNS:

    Code:
    dig c2.banthewasp.com
    
    ; <<>> DiG 9.2.1 <<>> c2.banthewasp.com
    ;; global options:  printcmd
