How to use sender_dependent_relayhost_maps in master.cf

[Sheng Zheng]

Hi

I am using postfix 2.3.2, the sender_dependent_relayhost_maps works
fine in main.cf , but when i use it in another smtpd configured in
master.cf , it doesn't work. It seems that the
sender_dependent_relayhost_maps option has been ignored, and the mail
will not be relayed to the destination smtpd . Does anybody has any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

This parameter is used by the smtp delivery agent and is ignored by smtpd.
Parameters in master.cf apply to the daemons for which are set, they are
not "sticky" to the messages those daemons handle.

Sounds like you need a second Postfix instance to handle mail that needs
(or does not need) sender dependent routing separately.

If my response solves your problem, the best way to thank me is to not
send an "it worked, thanks" follow-up. If you must respond, please put
"It worked, thanks" in the "Subject" so I can delete these quickly.

I have solved my problem by setup a second instance, but the mail
system became complex. We are hosting multiple domains on one mail
cluster.We just want to bind outgoing mail to different global address
depned on sender address after virus check. Is there any better
solution? Is there something like "sender_dependent_bind_address_maps"
on your development roadmap ?

Thanks
