Postfix - accept mail to anyone@anywhere.mydomain.co.uk

Asked by andrewjb in Linux

Tags: postfix, accept, mail

I've just got postfix running :-)

It'll currently accept and deliver mail to anyone@mydomain.co.uk, using luser_relay for unknown local addresses

It'll also accept mail delivered to anyone@anywhere.mydomain.co.uk, using the 'accept incoming' option. However it then tries to relay that to the internal machine

e.g. mail sent to joe@machine2.mydomain.co.uk is accepted, and postfix tries to relay to machine2.mydomain.co.uk, which doesn't exist.

Can I get it to basically ignore the <somethinghere>.mydomain.co.uk and either

1) Route email sent to joe@anywhere.somewhere.mydomain.co.uk to joe@mydomain.co.uk (i.e. ignore any leading bits..)

and/or

2) Route email sent to anyone@anywhere.mydomain.co.uk to go to a catchall catcher@mydomain.co.uk i.e. to spot misdirected emails..
