Hi Guys,

I thought my lesson was over, but it's not quite there yet.

I did get ordinary mail working, my pager worked, too.

What I didn't realise until lots later (until the first bounces
started occurring) that mail from our majordomo doesn't
reach the owners of the various lists.

Anyway, in the process of trying to figure out what is going
on I found that there seem to be a couple of postfix 1.x directives
in the main.cf file.

E.g.:
virtual_maps=dbm:/etc/mail/aliases,btree:/etc/postfix/recipient_canonical
Will postfix 2.0.3 silently ignore those? Or will they somehow
collide with my own statements
e.g.
virtual_alias_maps = dbm:/etc/postfix/virtual

If postfix still magically somehow utilises those... they
LOOK like aliases-files, but are listed under virtual. Does
that mean that I should be using postmap instead of
postalias on them?

More confused every day ...

Cheers,
Andrej
