Default Help with virtual setup



Ok,

As I explained last night, I have postfix set up and running along with i=
pop3.=20
I now need to set up the server to accept mail for non-local domains.

My question is this, I have read in the docs that there are two different
virtual setups:

1. Virtual alias domains

and

2. virtual mailbox domains

I am confused as to which to use and also the difference between the two,=
would
someone please explain the difference.

I am also assuming that I now have to set up the aliases hash db and to p=
ut into
this file all the domains that do not reside on the mail server that I wa=
nt to
accept mail for, like so:

johndoe@remotedomain.com ----> johndoe

This is my understanding that any mail sent to the server for
johndoe@remotedomain.com will be deliverd to the local mail box for johnd=
oe,=20
John Doe will then be able to pullmail of this server with his Outlook ma=
il
client.

Please someone tell me if this is correct or if I am way off base.

Thanks,

Bernie--=20
