Postfix prioritizes aliases instead of mailboxes.

[gomthaus]

Hi,

I have postfix and mysql set up on FC9. Everything works fine, except if I add a wildcard adress to the `alias` table on mysql (i.e. (at)domain), any email I send to anything(at)domain will go to the alias, even though i have `anything(at)domain` in my `mailbox` table. Can't figure out why is that.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

If you can share your config, It might help...

Postfix docs say:

NEVER put a virtual MAILBOX wild-card in the virtual ALIAS file

So basically, you should move your wild-card from the alias table into the mailbox table...

Hope this helps
