Thank you, this was most helpful! I checked in the logs and found a lot
of: "status=bounced (mail for silmemar.org loops back to myself)" where
silmemar.org is my machine's canonical domain, but all the user accounts
are receiving their email at gothpunk.com and freaknation.com with no
problems.
But root gets mail at root at finrod.silmemar.org.
Now I'm happily receiving my cron mail again (along with all other
mail). (Still trying to figure out how to move the Postfix setup from
the current "as simple as can be" local accounts to virtual aliases
instead. But I'll bang my head against that a few more times before I
ask for help here.
Thanks again.
