    Hi,
       I have a machine in a private network which relays mail via a mail
    gateway. I set myorigin to $mydomain to avoid any problems with access
    control measures on remote sites however all mail to local users now gets
    mailed to the mail gateway eg:

    mail-gw.fqdn.com -------- no-dns.fqdn.com

    on "no-dns" if I
    echo "hello" | mail root

    the mail goes to rootfqdn.com

    This appears to be the logical consequence of setting the origin.
    My question is:

    Q/ How do I get mail to users where there is no host specified to be
    delivered to the local machine whilst having $myorigin as a valid
    domain/host name.

    postconf -n:
    command_directory = /usr/sbin
    config_directory = /etc/postfix
    daemon_directory = /usr/libexec/postfix
    debug_peer_level = 2
    mail_owner = postfix
    mailq_path = /usr/bin/mailq
    manpage_directory = /usr/local/man
    mydomain = FQDN.TLD
    myhostname = NON_DNS_HOST.FQDN.TLD
    mynetworks_style = host
    myorigin = $mydomain
    newaliases_path = /usr/bin/newaliases
    queue_directory = /var/spool/postfix
    readme_directory = no
    relayhost = 192.9.200.99
    sample_directory = /etc/postfix
    sendmail_path = /usr/lib/sendmail
    setgid_group = postdrop

    Many thanks

    Andy Crichton
