Hi,

I am setting up postfix-19991231-pl04 on a solaris 7 machine, but for
some reason mail injected via a PHP-script disappears. I'm especially
pussled my the reference to mailhost.{domain}.com as the server really is
supposed to contact the destination directly (and that host does not
exist). Postfix worked fine on this server a few days ago, but now
something somewhere has changed (not the postfix configuration).

Can anyone give me a pointer to what migth be wrong.

NB: I have substituted the real domainname with {domain}, as I am not
allowed to let anyone know that this domain exist until the website has
been officially launched.

bash-2.02# postconf -n
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
command_directory = /usr/sbin
daemon_directory = /usr/libexec/postfix
debug_peer_level = 2
default_destination_concurrency_limit = 10
local_destination_concurrency_limit = 2
mail_owner = postfix
mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain
myhostname = web1.{domain}.com
queue_directory = /var/spool/postfix

The relevant part of the log file (just say so if more is neccesary):
