The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

["stefano.antonelli@cnaf" <address@concealed>]

Hi Pierre,

thank you for your answer and explanation which I will examine;

I've tried to change the alias but it doesn't work:

alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases,hash:/etc/sympa/sympa_transport (I left
the same name and format)
...
transport_maps = hash:/etc/sympa/transport.sympa

restart postfix but I still get a

"NOQUEUE: reject:...Recipient address rejected: User unknown in
recipient table;"

Still it'not clear, in maillog, in ">>> CHECKING RECIPIENT MAPS <<<"
section I see:

...

address@concealed -> (not found)

like if the sympa_transport is ignored; btw, having seen
virtual_alias_maps in the maillog, I've tried to define:

virtual_alias_maps =
hash:/etc/sympa/virtual.sympa,hash:/etc/sympa/sympa_transport

but without success. At the moment I do not understand (perhaps it's a
silly configuration which I'm missing but I don't know)

thank you
cheers
