Hey guys,

I have a bit of a problem that I don't understand.

I can send and receive mail from my mailserver but I'm unable to receive mail that I send to myself.

Is there a particular setting that doeant allow you to send mail to yourself?

Also,

Is there a way that you can mask who the incoming mails are from and map the address to a virtual from email.

My server is setup as a forwarding server so any email sent to my domain is forwarded to a virtual alias.

Thanks,
Garnett

Firstly, PostFix allows users to email themselves by default. I believe this is one of two issues. It is possibly a DNS issue or a spam issue. Can you give me a little more detail about your PostFix setup... Possibly the conf. Also what distro are you using and if this is your first time what tutorial did you follow?
