[rhn-users] How to route mail to local users using postfix?

Check your transport table.

You should have a line like this:

mydomain.com      local:localhost

This directs all mail to that domain to be delivered locally, rather
than using an smtp transport.

P. S.  Make SURE you run the postmap /etc/postfix/transport command
after modifying this file, then run postfix reload to begin using it. 
Been caught on one or the other of these two gotchas before.  :-}

Hello,

I'm running postfix on redhat 3.0 AS server with MailScanner and
SpamAssassin. For one domain, I relay that mail onto an exchange
server.
I've got another domain which consists of 3 local users. Mail setup to
relay works fine. For the three users with local accounts, incoming
mail
doesn't work at all. I can send mail from those accounts, I just don't
receive any.

I've looked for answers on the postfix site, and in the list archives.
I
don't know where to start, and I'm ready to start pulling my hair out.

What do I need to do so this machine accepts local mail?
