The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[Anders Lund <address@concealed>]

Hi,

I have a problem I would like to have comments on if anyone else has a
good solution:

Running Posfix 2.1.5 (Debian Stable 3.1) and Sympa 5.1.2 compiled from
source. I have set up Postfix to handle domain1 as my primary domain
("mydestination" in Postfix) and other domains (domain2 and domain3) as
"virtual_alias_domains" in Postfix.

I have

alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
        hash:/etc/sympa/sympa_aliases
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
        hash:/etc/sympa/sympa_aliases

listed in Postfix, and Sympa can update "sympa_aliases" using the
"alias_manager.pl" script.

I also have

virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/maps/virtual_alias,
        regexp:/etc/postfix/maps/virtual_sympa_regexp

and added

/^(.*)@domain2$/ domain2-$1
/^(.*)@domain3$/ domain3-$1

to "virtual_sympa_regexp".

Now my problem: When sending something to "bogusname@domain2" I hit the
regexp in "virtual_sympa_regexp" and the mail is accepted by Postfix
even though "bogusname" is not defined in my "sympa_aliases" file. Later
I get a "Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender" from Postfix telling me that

<domain2-bogusname@domain1>: unknown user: "domain2-bogusname"

What I would really like is to get directly a SMTP 550 error message
when trying to do a RCPT TO to this address. Like I do when I try to
send to "bogusname@domain1":

550 <bogusname@domain1>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in
local recipient table

Anyone with a good solution to this problem? Perhaps it is more of a
Postfix configuration problem and not directly related to Sympa, but it
would be nice to have comments...

- Anders
