Folks,
I recently migrated from sendmail to postfix.
Up to now I've been running a single robot, and am now in the process of setting up a second - and I find that I'm just a bit confused about how postfix handles all the sympa aliases.
Basic setup (which contains some legacy code from my old sendmail setup):
/etc/postfix/virtual.regexp contains
/^(.*)@lists.neighborhood.net$/ lists.neighborhood.net-$1
/etc/aliases contains:
sympa: "| /home/sympa/bin/queue address@concealed"
listmaster: "| /home/sympa/bin/queue address@concealed"
bounce+*: "| /home/sympa/bin/bouncequeue address@concealed"
sympa-request: postmaster
sympa-owner: postmaster
lists.neighborhood.net-sympa: "|/home/sympa/bin/queue address@concealed"
lists.neighborhood.net-listmaster: "| /home/sympa/bin/queue address@concealed
----
my question: when I look at this, I think I understand why address@concealed and address@concealed work, but I DON'T understand why bounce management seems to work properly
as I read this, the virtual.regexp expression would rewrite any bounce messages to
lists.neighborhood.net-bounce....
and there's no alias to feed this to bouncequeue - BUT... bounces seem to be working
so... what am I doing right, inadvertently? And, how do I set things up for a new virtual domain so it works properly?
Thanks much,
Miles
