Hi,
postfix seems to be ignoring my aliases file. There are no errors output when postfix starts, nor any errors logged while it is running. I'm pretty sure I will have an error somewhere but can't see the wood for the trees.
main.cf:
Code:
queue_directory = /var/spool/postfix

unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 550
mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8, 172.16.1.0/24, 172.16.4.0/24

Code:
coppermine# postmap -q root hash:/etc/aliases
philip@vm-lxsrv-001.intranet.abcdef.co.uk
and, finally the log output when I try to send a mail to root:
Code:

Someone please put me out of my misery,
