I hope this is not too far off topic.
I'm forwarding mail from an ISP to a dyndns.org address so that I can
filter mail. My domain was used as someone's ISP domain for a few
months some years ago. That ISP went bankrupt, but I still get spam to
anyuser at example.com. I've been using Procmail to filter out all
"anyuser" except my household. I'm moving my postoffice system to a
Debian system with Postfix, Courier IMAP, and Amavid-new. It's a good
combination. I thought that I could use a recipients table to block all
but the recipients that I want. however, this only works (so far) with
dyndns.org addresses. For instance, if my recipients table is:
me at example.dyndns.org OK
me at example.com OK
Mail to other at example.dyndns.org is block because it only excepts from
me at example.dyndns.org.
Mail to other at example.com does not get block and these are the
addresses that I long to dump to /dev/null.
It seems that I postfix thinks it's domain is example.dyndns.org but
not example.com. How might I get it to take charge of both domains?
