Before I begin I am running postfix/pop3. I have a domain registered and have setup an mx handler for the domain. My question is email gets through to user@host.domain.com but when mail is sent to user@domain.com it wont get through. Is there something special I need to do to be able to have user@domain.com work?


Thanks

Check the setting of postfix's mydestination parameter:
Code: fremont postfix # postconf | grep ^mydestination
mydestination = $mydomain $myhostname localhost.$mydomain localhost
My guess is that your mydestination parameter is still set to the install default: /etc/postfix/main.cf wrote: # The default is $myhostname + localhost.$mydomain. On a mail domain
# gateway, you should also include $mydomain.
