I think my coffeine input is reaching the neccessary level.
So the situation is as follows:
- internal server (knows only the two domains) and has the valid users in
virtual.
- gateway accepts mails for all domains (including the old domains), but
doesn't have a list of valid users and thus accepts all the invalid users.
You want to extract the valid users from the virtual on the internal
server and apply the users to all domains, so that only valid recipients
for all domains are accepted.
Question: does the internal server knows two separate domains, or does it
simply combine the mails for the two domains for each user into one single
account?

Is the same as ?

So you just need to grab the local part of each address in the incomplete
relay_recipient_maps and add the generics domains to it, write the address
into a new file and then postmap it and set it up as relay_recipient_maps.
# Just add these lines to your script
#
domains=("@example1.com" "@example2.com" "@example3.com")
#
cat in_complete_relay_recipient_maps | while read line;
do
{
user_name=`echo $line|cut -f1 -d"@"`
for i in `echo ${domains[*]}`; do
echo -e "$user_name$i" >> /etc/postfix/relay_recipients
done
}
done
If you have a long list to process you might want to use a perl script.
This shell script is not the fastest.

Does it really REJECT mails to invalid addresses or does it accept the
mails first and then BOUNCE the mails to the forged sender of the spam?
