Can you normally send e-mails to remote sites or is your Postfix
configured to send only "locally"?
OK, right, so I can see now that postfix is using /etc/aliases.
I put this line in there:
adam: adam.ha...@my-normal-email.com
and ran newaliases and saw that it recreated /etc/aliases.db.
Then I ran mail and sent user 'adam' an email, checked in the log and got this:
Jan 18 23:32:32 my-other-domain postfix/pickup[31591]: 11C082A8779: uid=1000

my-other-domain.vs.athnic.net[11.22.33.44]:25: Connection refused)
(END)
where vs.athnic.net is the sub-domain of the hosting service, and
my-other-domain is the new domain I'm setting up a webserver for.
So despite the postconf command saying that it's using /etc/aliases, it's not
actually picking up the different email address from there. Maybe it doesn't get
that far though - and it will change it after - except it gets 'connection
refused' so it stops.
The connection could feasibly be blocked by a firewall belonging to the hosting
service, but port 25 is standard for SMTP and they said the standard ones were free.
but why am i seeing postfix build a connection with itself? have I got something
wrong here in the network configuration?
Just for the record, here's my postfix main.cf:
mydomain = ecocore.org
myhostname = $mydomain
myorigin = $mydomain
mynetworks_style = host
append_dot_mydomain = no
local_recipient_maps =
inet_interfaces = loopback-only
