    Hi everyone,

    I have a question regarding domain aliases. If I create a domain alias from domain1 to domain2 than emails send to user@domain1 do not go to user@domain2. They are being bounced because user@domain1 does not exist. (user@domain2 exists)

    If I create a catch all alias from @domain1 to @domain2 then everything seems to work and mail is being delivered to user@domain2.

    So, my question here is how exactly are we supposed to configure alias domain? Do we need to have the email address exist in both domains?

    Thanks

    George

    how exactly are we supposed to configure alias domain?

    You'll need to configure postfix as described in POSTFIX_CONF.TXT in the PostfixAdmin documentation.

    And, to quote INSTALL.TXT:
    There are also lots of HOWTOs around the web. Be warned that many of them may be outdated or incomplete.
    Please stick to the PostfixAdmin documentation, and use those HOWTOs only if you need some additional information that is missing in the PostfixAdmin DOCUMENTS/ folder.

    Thank you. I had missed the part with mysql_virtual_alias_domain_maps.cf
