I'm trying to figure out why my sendmail catch-all alias does not work. i have: @mydomainname.com myusername as the last line in my /etc/mail/virtusertable and I did rebuild the virtusertable db by running: makemap -r /etc/mail/virtusertable < /etc/mail/virtusertable I try to send a test message to some random email address that doesn't exist and it gets bounced by my mail server saying user doesn't exist. I tried testing the mapping out by running "sendmail -bt" and doing this: --- # sendmail -bt ADDRESS TEST MODE (ruleset 3 NOT automatically invoked) Enter <ruleset> <address> > /map virtuser randomname@mydomainname.com map_lookup: virtuser (randomname@mydomainname.com) no match (0) --- (note: i'm replacing my real domain name with "mydomainname.com" for this email). If I add the randomname@mydomainname.com to virtusertable and rebuild the db emails and mapping work fine. Any tips on how to properly diagnose this?
