postfix: how to accept multiple domains?

Hello,

we are maintaining a server for several mailing lists. Everything works
fine, but we want to support multiple email adresses for one list.

Assume the server name ourserver.com. Then, the address for a list named
'coffee' would be (E-Mail Removed). This works fine.

Now we would like to let the address (E-Mail Removed) be accepted as
well. Here, anotherserver.com is a registered domain (mx record). The
transport works fine: These mails arrive at ourserver.com.

The only problem we have when sending mail to anotherserver.com is:
postfix says "relaying denied".

We know about virtual addresses in postfix and that we can assign certain
addresses for anotherserver.com to be equivalent to addresses on
ourserver.com.

For example: We can say that

(E-Mail Removed) = (E-Mail Removed)

But we want to do this with wildcards, saying that anything for
anotherserver.com should be handled as if it was for ourserver.com.

Any hints?

Thank you very much,
Wil

I think you would add the domains to the "mydestination" parameter in
main.cf
ie:
mydomain = ourserver.com
mydestination = $myhostname $mydomain anotherserver.com

Dear Eric,

that's it! I swear I tried exactly this multiple times and it didn't work.
Now it goes!

Thanks!
