what happened:
1) sent a message to username1@aliaseddomain, when
username1@primarydomain is a mailbox, it arrives just fine in
username1@primarydomain mailbox.
2) sent a message to username2@aliaseddomain, when there is only an
alias for username2@primarydomain. bounce back occurred with "user
unknown".
3) added an alias for username2@aliaseddomain to match the forwarding
addresses listed for username2@primarydomain alias. sending again and
the email got delivered fine with this extra layer of aliasing
aliases... seems like a redundant work-around. any suggestions?
Sorry. This is too confusing to figure out. If you're going to ask
questions that use randomly-generated E-mail addresses, pulled out of thin
air, then you should also employ a random number generator to find your
answer.
Otherwise, you should post the actual contents of your configuration files
(locals, hosteddomains, aliases, and so on), as well as the actual portions
of your maillog/syslog files, that show what the problem is. Reading the
repetitive occurences of "username1", "username2", "domain1", "domain2",
"fooX", just makes one's eyes glaze over.
