Hi there,

If a user employs a .forward file, and the message cannot be
delivered, postfix's DSN will alert the original sender that the
email address specified in the .forward file is not reachable. e.g,
if A sent B a message, and B has a .forward to C, then postfix will
deliver the following error to A:

  <C>: host relay[xxx.xx.xx.xx] said: 550 <C>: User unknown in local
  recipient table (in reply to RCPT TO command)

This is potentially confusing. I've seen MTAs returning a message
like "... expanded from <B>". Could postfix be made to do that?

Are there any means to control the text in the DSN?

Cheers,

--
