    "User unknown in <mumble> recipient table" is the reply from the SMTP
    server. It is detailed in order to avoid this list from being flooded
    by confused new Postfix admins.

    The "in <mumble> recipient table" part (which can refer to any of
    the four major address classes in Postfix) can be turned off in
    main.cf with "show_user_unknown_table_name = no".
