Problem with unknown domains (please help)

Hi.

I'm using postfix + amavis as a mail gateway for our network. It acts
like:
mail_to_my_domain -> postfix -> amavis(content_filtering) -> postfix ->
transport_map_to_intranet_postfix_server (like domain smtp:<internal_ip>)
-> intranet_postfix

I read in a postfix+amavis manual that I have to add 'soft_bounce = yes'
in my main.cf file. When I enable this option and I e.g. send an e-mail to
an incorrect e-mail address (incorect domain) then I don't get the replay
that the domain is incorect. The 'incorect' e-mail just spool and 'mailq'
produce:
C05CD314D7 846 Sun Dec 1 16:18:14
                          (Name service error for dafsdfgs.si: Host not
found)
                                         

If I remove 'soft_bounce' option all seem to work fine.

Did I miss something?

Below is 'postconf -n' output of my server (I already removed soft_bounce
option). Is there any mistake? Do I have to add something and more
important do I have to enable soft_bounce?
