Hello,

I'm having another problem this morning where my virtual domains are
conflicting with my local domain. Here's what's happening:

the mail server is mail.local.com and I have a bunch of aliases for that
setup in virtual file:

somethinglocal.com something (a local user in the /etc/passwd file)

I also have a catch all user:

local.com catchall (another local user)

below that in the virtual file I have some other domains:

elsevirtual.com else (still a local user)

but all the mail for elsevirtual.com is going to the catchall user. My
setup is taking the "else" user, expanding it to "elselocal.com",
realizes that there isn't an "elselocal.com" user and then sends it to
the catchall user. How can I get it to just send the virtual email
directly to the local user? Geeze, that sounds like a dumb question and
I'm really sorry. I did read the docs but they're slightly confusing.
A lot of this setup is coming from an old funky sendmail setup.

Here's my 'postconf -n'. Btw, $mydestination points to the
'local-host-names' file which is copied straight over from the sendmail
setup. Is there a problem with that?
