I have a postfix server setup with alias using /etc/aliases in which we have:

postmaster:     root
bounces: root

also config in main.cf are:

transport_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/transport

transport file contains:

bounces@example.com   bulkbounce:

master.cf:

bulkbounce   unix  -       n       n       -       -       pipe
  user=nobody argv=/etc/postfix/bounce_hold.php ${recipient}

Everything is working fine if I set return path to bounces@example.com

This is the log :

The problem starts with bounce+@example.com:

I even have recipient_delimiter = +

How can I have that bounces+ some id move to the pipe script?

  • Do you use "Postfix 2.0 or later"? – AnFi Mar 07 '18 at 17:03
  • Is `bounces@example` in transport table correct? Should not it be `bounces@example.com`? – AnFi Mar 07 '18 at 17:06
  • postfix version 2.0 @AnFi – jision Mar 07 '18 at 17:11
  • bounces@example is a typo its bounces@example.com the problem is that bounces+@example.com is not being piped but according to documents postfix bydefault works on this extension and send the call back to bounces@example.com but this is not happening for my case. – jision Mar 07 '18 at 17:16
