Hello all,
I have a problem that’s more of an MTA configuration issue than an RT issue,
but it does pertain to getting RT setup and I thought maybe someone else might
have tried a similar setup. I’ve been unable to resolve the issue by
searching the
postfix archives & FAQ, nor the RT wiki and list archives. Actually, it seems to
be a combination of two postfix FAQs:
I want to route some mail away (to google apps), but also for certain
recipients’
messages to make their way to RT.
RT incoming address is:
play@cambenergy.org
postfix/virtual:
play play@localhost
postfix transmutes this to:
play@localhost.cambenergy.org
which is deferred, and the alias is never reached:
play: “|/path/to/command”
The virtuals for real local users do get mail routed to mail spools though…
Much obliged,

Mydestinations
mydestination = localhost.$mydomain, localhost
If I remove localohost.$mydomain, instead of the message getting stuck
in deferral,
I get the following bounce:
play@localhost.cambenergy.org (expanded from play@cambenergy.org): Host or
domain name not found. Name service error for name=localhost.cambenergy.org
type=A: Host not found

add cambenergy.org to mydestinations
that will keep the emails going to play@cambenergy.org local
But all @cambenergy.org (except explicitly configured for local delivery)
are supposed to be relayed, hence the lack of domain in mydestinations…
Regardless, the messages are still deferred even with that change :-/

got it, i thought i missed something
here is how i would do it
set the dns rt.cambenergy.org to point to your server
now configure postfix for that domain to keep it local, and alias
play@cambenergy.org to play@rt.cambenergy.org

done
now configure postfix for that domain to keep it local,
mydestination = localhost.$mydomain, localhost, rt.cambenergy.org?
and alias play@cambenergy.org to play@rt.cambenergy.org
no joy.
Tom, would it be possible to get the pertinent excerpts from your
postconf, etc.?

Thishttp://www.cjbuckley.net/blog/2007/08/19/rt-postfix/ seems to be
what Tom &
Chaim are suggestion. Alas, it has not worked thus far.
I also tried explicitly forcing a local transport for the username
http://episteme.arstechnica.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/96509133/m/512000799831
but the same problematic expansion to the unresolvable
@localhost.$mydomain occurs.
I’m afraid I may have to create unix users, but that’s most uncool and
difficult to maintain.
