    Craig,

    I thought it might be a postfix issue, and it might even be an issue with
    the postfix configs. However, I wrote to the cyrus list because of the log
    message:

    Feb 2 10:36:17 mail postfix/pipe[17766]: 094211C013C: to=<>,
    relay=cyrus, delay=0, status=bounced (data format error. Command output:
    user: Mailbox does not exist )

    Postfix can't find the mailbox to send it to, which is defined by cyrus and
    is defined as . This would seem to point to a cyrus
    config parameter, that may be located inside the postfix config files.

    host -t mx mail.domain.com -> returns nothing, but receives mail
    host -t mx domain.com -> returns domain.com mail is handled by 10
    mail.domain.com, but does not receive mail

    Thanks,

    Greg Harris
