[TriLUG] Postfix config question vmaps.txt

[Ben Pitzer]

Here's a thought:  Your main.cf file is pointing to /etc/postfix/valias.txt,
but in your original post, you quoted the file /etc/postfix/vmaps.txt.  Any
reference to that file in your main.cf?  Does valias.txt exist?  What's in
it?

Regards,
Ben Pitzer
