I have the following working mail setup:
1. Local postfix deferring all SMTP mail which uses localhost:2300 as a
relay. (DN local.net)
2. A remote postfix that is able to send emails. (DN remote.net)
3. A local cronjob that first sets up an SSH forwarding from
localhost:2300 to remote:25 and calls "sendmail -q" to push push the
locally queued email.Now for the actual question. My local user is called 'foo' my remote user is called 'bar'. I use the local /etc/mailname to rewrite outgoing addresses to [EMAIL PROTECTED], without it I am not able to relay through the remote server. However, since the user 'foo' doesn't exist on the remote system the logs will report that an unknown user sent emails. How can I fix that locally? I tried using "smtp_generic_maps" to rewrite [EMAIL PROTECTED] to [EMAIL PROTECTED], but didn't get it to do what I wanted. (With it in place 'mailq' still reports [EMAIL PROTECTED] as the sender.) /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://therning.org/magnus Software is not manufactured, it is something you write and publish.
