See my comment below. http://www.postfix.org/LOCAL_RECIPIENT_README.html What the map does is map valid recipient addresses to local mailboxes.

Sure :| If you review one of my previous answers in the thread about Cyrus-IMAPd you will find a warning about using the create on post option of the autocreate patch. You now see the effect: each spam mail to a local domain but with a random, non existing account will create you a new mailbox. > EJ Alexander -- Alexander Dalloz | Enger, Germany | GPG http://pgp.mit.edu 0xB366A773 legal statement: http://www.uni-x.org/legal.html Fedora Core 2 GNU/Linux on Athlon with kernel 2.6.11-1.35_FC2smp Serendipity 03:08:48 up 11 days, 10:00, load average: 0.57, 0.48, 0.56
