RT-Mailgate + Postfix on SLES10 Not Receiving Mail

Greetings,

After many hours scouring around the globe for answers, I have feel I have gathered enough diagnostic info to post my issue. The RT server is up and sending mail via a relay fine. I have configured RT with the recommended groups/perms and am able to create tx fine and such. I have fiddled around with the aliases file, postfix's main.conf and apache2's vhost.conf until my eyes are bleeding, always restarting postfix, apache and running newaliases after each change/test msg. After application of many good tips found, the RT server still refuses to accept mail. Below is a sanitized section of the /var/log/mail.info log seemingly indicating that the message is bounced due to 'unknown user'. Of the many things I am not certain of, the docs indicate that a user must be created that is associated to the rt-mailgate script - but I am not sure how this needs to be done. When replying to a tx, the bounced message will be returned to the sender ok. I am decidedly stumped. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Oct 29 18:17:35 dt-rt postfix/qmgr[7108]: ED9E318235: removed

BTW - NOT running any virtual mail hosts that would interfere with the alaias pipe directive.
Also, the server is able to resolve its own url on the local browser.

RT 3.8.3. Postfix 2.2.9. mod_perl 2.02, SLES10SP2, apache2

Best regards,

Victor

Victor,

your problem lies in the lines above. you apparently have some
non-ascii / non-printable characters in your alias definition which
postfix is choking on. make sure that when you're editing your aliases
file that you're using single-byte ASCII characters and not double-byte
or extended ASCII characters.

hope this helps.

Alan
