You need to show some logs of one try and the other!

Please don't fiddle with the permissions.

You need virtual_maps for that. Specify:

d1 virtual
ad1 a_at_d1
bd1 b_at_d1
cd1 c_at_d1

And in aliases specify:

a_at_d1 d1_mailboxes/a
b_at_d1 d1_mailboxes/b
c_at_d1 d1_mailboxes/c

>a part of those should go via smtp directly to other machines.
How this? Either you specify in virtual:

d1 virtual
ad1 some_usersome_other_server

or you create a transport map:

.d1 :[some_other_server]
d1 :[some_other_server]

You'd need a POP3 daemon that does "virtual users" or "virtual domain"
support.

Whatever :) See you on the WE...
