postfix: user unknown in local recipient table (only with the main domain/hostname)

  • 772

I configured postfix with a fake hostname to avoid this error... but I need to use a real domain to setup rDNS.

When I send mail to [email protected] I get the following error:

postfix/smtpd[3540]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from mail-oln040092065078.outbound.protection.outlook.com[40.92.65.78]: 550 5.1.1 <[email protected]>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table;

The table is configured for the user I try to send mail, and neither I forgot to regenerate the db file (sudo postmap /etc/postfix/vmailbox). That error doesn't make any sense at all!

Using another domain in myhostname will "fix" the error for the previously affected domain, but the new specified domain will suffer the same, that's why I used a fake one.

Now, I can't keep avoiding it, so does anyone know why I'm getting that error for the main domain?
