Hi All,

I have searched many hours on google trying to find if an virtual alias
is possible in combination with a virtual mailbox with te same name.

The setup we have is a complete complete virtual based one with
mailboxes stored in mysql

virtual_alias_domains = $virtual_alias_maps
virtual_alias_expansion_limit = 1000
virtual_alias_maps = mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-autoreply.cf
mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual.cf
hash:/etc/postfix/virtual-special
regexp:/etc/postfix/reserved-addresses
virtual_alias_recursion_limit = 1000
virtual_destination_concurrency_limit =
$default_destination_concurrency_limit
virtual_destination_recipient_limit = $default_destination_recipient_limit
virtual_gid_maps = static:1002
virtual_mailbox_base = /
virtual_mailbox_domains = hash:/etc/postfix/mailbox-domains
mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-transport.cf
virtual_mailbox_limit = 51200000
virtual_mailbox_lock = fcntl
virtual_mailbox_maps = mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-mailbox.cf
virtual_minimum_uid = 1000
virtual_transport = virtual
virtual_uid_maps = static:1002


Now i have already this working situation :
When an email comes in for a certain mailbox, lets say
destination(a)myexample.com, it is aliased to
seconddestination(a)myexample.com and somebox(a)yahoomail.
In my mysql table i then have two entries destination(a)myexample.com ->
seconddestination(a)myexample.com and destination(a)myexample.com ->
somebox(a)yahoomail.
This would make destination(a)myexample.com a pure virt. alias and
seconddestination(a)myexample.com a pure virtual mailbox.


My wish is this :
When an email comes in for a certain mailbox, lets say
wish(a)myexample.com, i also want a copy to somebox(a)googlemail.com.
How do i have to setup this ?
@ first i would think of this : In my virtual mailbox maps i put
wish(a)myexample.com and in my virtual alias maps i put 2 entries :
wish(a)myexample.com -> wish(a)myexample.com and wish(a)myexample.com ->
somebox(a)googlemail.com.

But in this example, the mail never arrives in the wish(a)myexample.com
virtual mailbox.
Is it because the same name is present in both virtual alias maps and
virtual mailbox maps ?

Kind regards

Gerrit.
