UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

I am new in UNIX system. I added new e-mail in e-mail list and built new aliases database using newaliases command. List works fine but it kicks back error message every time someone sends e-mail. I attached the error message that sender got.
-----Original Message-----
From: Mail Delivery System [mailto:MAILER-DAEMON@hostname]
Sent: date
To: sender
Subject: Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender

This is the Postfix program at host hostname.

I'm sorry to have to inform you that your message could not
be delivered to one or more recipients. It's attached below.

For further assistance, please send mail to <postmaster>

If you do so, please include this problem report. You can
delete your own text from the attached returned message.

The Postfix program

<#@hostname> (expanded from <email@hostname>):
unknown
user: "#"

<Name@hostname> (expanded from <email@hostname>):
unknown user: "Name"

<Othername@hotstname> (expanded from <email@hostname>):
unknown user: "Othername"

This looks like some kind of malformed alias.

Can you post the relevant entry from your aliases file (obfuscating the information as appropriate)?

Cheers,

Sorry it took so long.

My aliases file looks like this (after editing volatile data)

# Added by installer for initial user
root: name
awesome: name

postmaster: root

test: email1
email2
email3
email4
......
......

info: email
daemon: root
bin: root

Does this make sense?

I have reproduced your symptoms.

You must have a commented alias (although I can't see this in the sample that you provided) - which will not work, e.g:

Code:

someone: # Name Othername

Remove or fix this alias, run newaliases, and you should be ok.

Hamm, I still can't figure out. Instead I am thinking about disabling delivery bounce (Since mail is delivered). Do you know how to disable and where?
