Hello, Thanks for the help. The thing is that our main mailserver is not able to work with reports from only one address. It has a db with some "names" that match name@ourinternaldomain.tld and then send the reports to the respective persons/mailing lists. So the basics of the question is: Is it possible to get every mail (including local mail) redirected to one domain with MX lookup? I've been reading about LUSER_RELAY, LOCAL_RELAY, stickyhost, but I don't know if this will solve the problem.
