Mac OS X Server 10.4 and virtual_maps





Mac OS X Server 10.4 and virtual_maps


I accept mail for many domains. If the mail is addressed to:

<known_user>@<any_hosted_domain>, I want to deliver the mail to the known_user

If the user is unknown, I want to bounce the eMail.

The exception to this is the domain:    abcdefg.com
(not the actual domain name)

Whenever I give my email address to a vendor, I give them:
<vendor>@abcdefg.com

Example:
Amazon knows me as email@hidden
Apple knows me as email@hidden

There are many 100s of  @abcdefg.com email addresses that I have given out.

Now for my problem....
I do want to accept all mail sent to:   <anything>@abcdefg.com
and forward it to local user:  sortme

Is there any way to do this in the GUI?
I have tried creating the short name: sortme
with a second short name of: @abcdefg
local user sortme is now getting the mail but is part of an undeliverable message.



PLEASE HELP THANKS IN ADVANCE


Note: With Mac OS X Server 10.3, I went into: main.cf and added: local_recipient_maps = virtual_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual

then went into file:  virtual
and added:
@abcdefg.com        sortme

and updated the config files by:
 cd /etc/postfix
 postmap /etc/postfix/virtual

While i suspect this will work for 10.4, I was wondering if there is an easier way using the GUI.

Please reply using baby steps, I am way over my head :)
