Postfix Confusion with virtual

[Brian Chabot]

OK... I edited my main.cf again...

Changed from:
smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks,  check_client_access 
hash:/etc/postfix/pop-before-smtp,  reject_rbl_client 
sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org,  reject_rbl_client relays.ordb.org,  
reject_rbl_client list.dsbl.org,    reject_rbl_client bl.spamcop.net,   
reject_rbl_client spam.dnsrbl.net,  reject_rbl_client dun.dnsrbl.net,   
reject_rbl_client rbl.datasquire.net, reject

First to:
 smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks,  check_client_access 
hash:/etc/postfix/pop-before-smtp,  reject_rbl_client 
sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org,  reject_rbl_client relays.ordb.org,  
reject_rbl_client list.dsbl.org,    reject_rbl_client bl.spamcop.net,   
reject_rbl_client spam.dnsrbl.net,  reject_rbl_client dun.dnsrbl.net,   
reject_rbl_client rbl.datasquire.net, reject_unauth_recipient

No joy.  My thought was that the virtual entries WERE authorized 
recipients....

Then, I change it to:
smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, check_client_access 
hash:/etc/postfix/pop-before-smtp,  reject_rbl_client 
sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org,  reject_rbl_client relays.ordb.org,  
reject_rbl_client list.dsbl.org,    reject_rbl_client bl.spamcop.net,   
reject_rbl_client spam.dnsrbl.net,  reject_rbl_client dun.dnsrbl.net,   
reject_rbl_client rbl.datasquire.net, permit_auth_destination, 
check_relay_domains

Worked!

Now wanna hear the interesting part?

reject_unauth_recipient is NOT in the list of possible values here.  But 
it did NOT give an error even in debug mode. 

That's what is bugging me right now.  I made a mistake which *should* 
have caused at *least* a warning in debug mode.  I don't expect to catch 
my own mistakes or else I'd have never made them in the first place, but 
when postfix doesn't either.... GRR.


Any way... Problem solved.  Thanks for the help and allowing me to vent.
