Have Postfix map root to the correct address, odysseyindia.com - not
mail.odysseyindia.com. Can't show you an actual example, since we block
all mail from "Everyones Internet ", your ISP, (having received spam
from it in the past).

Thanks for that. odysseyindia.com (the pc) is seperate and not really
related to odysseyindia.com (the domain).
Isn't the setting "myorigin = odyssey.co.in" enough?
I don't map postfix to mail.odysseyindia.com as far as I can see.
Bummer that the ISP is a bad one. I didn't know that. It is a host
selected by my Indian partner (for its low cost I suspect).

Alfred
