I hate to ask this since so many people have asked the same question before
and there are so many answers to the problem, but I've spent days on this
and nothing seems to work and I'm afraid that I'm going to make it
unfixable. It probably doesn't that I'm sitting in a lounge trying to
administer it remotely and it's really difficult to concentrate.

Basically, the local (ns)domain works fine and mail makes it through. I get
the error message from the virtual domains which share the same IP as my
primary (ns) domain.


ns# postconf -n
alias_maps = hash:/etc/mail/aliases
command_directory = /usr/local/sbin
config_directory = /usr/local/etc/postfix
daemon_directory = /usr/local/libexec/postfix
debug_peer_level = 2
html_directory = no
inet_interfaces = all
mail_owner = postfix
mailq_path = /usr/local/bin/mailq
manpage_directory = /usr/local/man
mydestination = me.com
mydomain = me.com
myhostname = smtp.me.com
myorigin = $myhostname
newaliases_path = /usr/local/bin/newaliases
queue_directory = /var/spool/postfix
readme_directory = no
relay_domains = $mydestination, /etc/mail/relay-domains
sample_directory = /usr/local/etc/postfix
sendmail_path = /usr/local/sbin/sendmail
setgid_group = maildrop
soft_bounce = yes
unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 550
virtual_alias_domains = virtual1.org virtual2.com
virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/mail/virtual

>>maillog line<<

Apr 22 00:43:19 ns postfix/smtp[4111]: 68A83176235: to=<fred@smtp.me.com>,
orig_to=<cannon@virtual1.com>, relay=none, delay=1, status=SOFTBOUNCE (mail
for smtp.me.com loops back to myself)

If someone could take a look at it and see where I'm being an idiot, I'd
really appreciate it.

mydestination = $myhostname, $mydomain, localhost

For anyone interested, it worked perfectly, thanks again.
