Description Peter Varkoly 2006-04-13 08:47:45 UTC 
yast2-mail modul uses the obsolate postfix attribute virtual_maps to provide virtual mail server capabilities. This bug conserns SLES10 and SLES9 too.

In postfix 2.0 you have to use the attributes:
virtual_mailbox_base, virtual_mailbox_maps and virtual_mailbox_domains

Alternativly you can use virtual_alias_domains and virtual_alias_maps too.
virtual_alias_domains have to contains entries like:
varkoly.de anything
suse.de anything

virtual_alias_maps contains the virtual mail adresses
peter@varkoly.de varkoly
varkoly@suse.de  varkoly

#to implement a catch-all address
@varkoly.de varkoly

grep virtual_maps /sbin/conf.d/SuSEconfig.postfix
;-)
Comment 2 Peter Varkoly 2006-04-15 13:59:08 UTC 
OK I'll fix it (I do not use SuSEconfig.postfix:-) But that is only one of the problems. Postfix uses virtual_maps transition way. The main problem is that in yast2-mail the domain entries will not be written into the /etc/postfix/virtual. That's why only clients from the local network can send emails to the virtual adresses. I see to ways:
1. you have to ensure that if the user enter an virtual email address the a domain entry must exsist for it too.
2. you have to refer in the help text to do it so.
Comment 3 Peter Varkoly 2006-04-24 11:09:54 UTC 
I've fixed the SuSEconfig.postfix file.
But as I saed. It is not the main problem but the missing virtual domain entries.
Please fix it in the yast2-mail modul.

It does not work on beta11
The virtual entries are useless in this form.
