Ok, so, after your previous, I'm confused as to what to do to fix this...

Yeah, I kind of figured that, so now I just need to know how to fix it
without breaking anything...

Thanks, fixed...

It's not local, I'm using virtual_mailbox_domains/maps... I do host
email for two other domains, just no lists (and no need for them)...

So, now my new mm_cfg.py is:

?

Or, should I make POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS = ['example.com']
