Postfix RELAY_RECIPIENT_MAPS

[adeelarifbhatti]

hi all ,
well i have configured postfix as inbound mail gateway . Every thing is working fine except the relay maps .
the option in the main .cf i.e relay_recipient_maps is configured properly.
and i have also postmap that file to created the hash file but my server is still accepting mails for user which are not present in my domain .

CAN ANY ONE TELL ME WHATS THE PROBLEM


Thanks

I sure would appreciate some suggestions/help setting up Postfix to forward inbound mail to two internal mail servers. I think I am trying to do the same thing you are and am having a devil of a time getting it working.
I am fairly new to Linux, but have successfully completed other linux projects.

I have a single static IP address with my ISP and all my servers are behind a router/firewall. I host multiple domains and use port forwarding (port 25) on the router to route inbound mail to my Exhange server. I now want to test Zimbra on Ubuntu as a second mail server, and I would like to forward inbound mail for domain B to Zimbra and mail for domain A to Exchange. Actually I would love to have all inbound mail duplicated on both servers during my test period.

I've followed instructions for common configurations on Postfix.org, but with little success and probably less real understanding. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

postfix transport_maps - Google Search

that sounds like what you want. transport maps allow you say

@domain1    smtp:[mailserver1]
@domain2     smtp:[mailserver2]
user1@domain1      smtp:[mailserver2]

so you can define what the next hop is for a domain or email account.

Thanks for the suggestion. I will look for relevant posts that hopefully have clear examples of parameters required in the various postfix configuration files.

ask if you can't find good answers. I am using transport maps now to deliver to our 2 internal mail servers (1 is exchange). It might be useful to start a new thread though since this seems like it forked the above question

I've the line below in my main.cf file

relay_recipient_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/relay_recipients

I've run the postmap
postmap /etc/postfix/relay_recipients

below is results "ls" command

mail postfix # ls /etc/postfix/
1 local_recipients.db master.cf pcre-header.cf postfix-files relay_domains relay_recipients saslpass transport.db
local_recipients main.cf pcre-body.cf post-install postfix-script relay_domains.db relay_recipients.db transport transport.db.db
mail postfix #

But postfix is still letting every message through.

Would anyone know what the problem is

relay_recipients contents e.g.

# modise@domain.com
modise@domain.com OK
modise1@domain.com OK
