Steve, Thank you for your response. I do want to temporary queue mail for a fallback domain and not store the mail on my mailserver.
Unfortunately this is what happens (local storage of mail which my mailserver receives for fallback hosts) when mail for another domain is delivered on my mailserver when the recipient of that message excists as a local user account on my server. In Short. My problem is that mail that will be received for any domain I have in '/etc/mail/local-host-names' would be delivered to a local user account altought this user is not specified in '/etc/mail/virtusertable'. Ofcourse this works only if the recipient (before the '@') is the same as an excisting local user account on the mailserver. Hope I made it clear... and hope you have an answer on this.
