    I am running mailman locally on my mail gateway and it appears it will only work if I have local recipients and can be referenced by the aliases (local) daemon. So unfortunately I cannot get rid of $mydomain/$relay_domains in $mydestination. I added the parameters in bold, reject_unverified_recipient and unverified_recipient_reject_code = 550, which has forced postfix to reject emails to non existant recipients. So I would say I have accomplished my goal, but I am not fully sure what the full consequenses of this 'hybrid' setup is. Comments are appreciated.

    smtpd_recipient_restrictions =
      reject_non_fqdn_sender,
      reject_non_fqdn_recipient,
      reject_unknown_sender_domain,
      reject_unknown_recipient_domain,
      permit_sasl_authenticated,
      permit_mynetworks,
      reject_invalid_hostname,
      reject_non_fqdn_hostname,
      reject_unauth_destination,
      reject_unverified_recipient,
    ..
      permit_auth_destination,
      reject
     
    unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 550
    unverified_recipient_reject_code = 550

    If it's a gateway, i.e. it just relays messages to some other server,
    why does the messages even reach local(8)? Don't list relay domains in
    mydestination, list them in relay_domains.

       http://www.postfix.org/STANDARD_CONFIGURATION_README.html#firewall

    Show complete logs of a message not being rejected.
