+# TRANSPORT(5) TRANSPORT(5)
+#
+# NAME
+# transport - Postfix transport table format
+#
+# SYNOPSIS
+# postmap /etc/postfix/transport
+#
+# postmap -q "string" /etc/postfix/transport
+#
+# postmap -q - /etc/postfix/transport <inputfile
+#
+# DESCRIPTION
+# The optional transport(5) table specifies a mapping from
+# email addresses to message delivery transports and/or
+# relay hosts. The mapping is used by the trivial-rewrite(8)
+# daemon.
+#
+# This mapping overrides the default routing that is built
+# into Postfix:
+#
+# mydestination
+# A list of domains that is by default delivered via
+# $local_transport. This also includes domains that
+# match $inet_interfaces or $proxy_interfaces.
+#
+# virtual_mailbox_domains
+# A list of domains that is by default delivered via
+# $virtual_transport.
+#
+# relay_domains
+# A list of domains that is by default delivered via
+# $relay_transport.
+#
+# any other destination
+# Mail for any other destination is by default deliv-
+# ered via $default_transport.
+#
+# Normally, the transport(5) table is specified as a text
+# file that serves as input to the postmap(1) command. The
+# result, an indexed file in dbm or db format, is used for
+# fast searching by the mail system. Execute the command
+# "postmap /etc/postfix/transport" in order to rebuild the
+# indexed file after changing the transport table.
+#
+# When the table is provided via other means such as NIS,
+# LDAP or SQL, the same lookups are done as for ordinary
+# indexed files.
+#
+# Alternatively, the table can be provided as a regular-
+# expression map where patterns are given as regular expres-
+# sions, or lookups can be directed to TCP-based server. In
+# that case, the lookups are done in a slightly different
+# way as described below under "REGULAR EXPRESSION TABLES"
+# and "TCP-BASED TABLES".
+#
+# TABLE FORMAT
+# The input format for the postmap(1) command is as follows:
+#
+# pattern result
+# When pattern matches the recipient address or
+# domain, use the corresponding result.
+#
+# blank lines and comments
+# Empty lines and whitespace-only lines are ignored,
+# as are lines whose first non-whitespace character
+# is a `#'.
+#
+# multi-line text
+# A logical line starts with non-whitespace text. A
+# line that starts with whitespace continues a logi-
+# cal line.
+#
+# The pattern specifies an email address, a domain name, or
+# a domain name hierarchy, as described in section "TABLE
+# LOOKUP".
+#
+# The result is of the form transport:nexthop and specifies
+# how or where to deliver mail. This is described in section
+# "RESULT FORMAT".
+#
+# TABLE SEARCH ORDER
+# With lookups from indexed files such as DB or DBM, or from
+# networked tables such as NIS, LDAP or SQL, patterns are
+# tried in the order as listed below:
+#
+# user+extension@domain transport:nexthop
+# Deliver mail for user+extension@domain through
+# transport to nexthop.
+#
+# user@domain transport:nexthop
+# Deliver mail for user@domain through transport to
+# nexthop.
+#
+# domain transport:nexthop
+# Deliver mail for domain through transport to nex-
+# thop.
+#
+# .domain transport:nexthop
+# Deliver mail for any subdomain of domain through
+# transport to nexthop. This applies only when the
+# string transport_maps is not listed in the par-
+# ent_domain_matches_subdomains configuration set-
+# ting. Otherwise, a domain name matches itself and
+# its subdomains.
+#
+# Note 1: the special pattern * represents any address (i.e.
+# it functions as the wild-card pattern).
+#
+# Note 2: the null recipient address is looked up as
+# $empty_address_recipient@$myhostname (default: mailer-dae-
+# mon@hostname).
+#
+# Note 3: user@domain or user+extension@domain lookup is
+# available in Postfix 2.0 and later.
+#
+# RESULT FORMAT
+# The lookup result is of the form transport:nexthop. The
+# transport field specifies a mail delivery transport such
+# as smtp or local. The nexthop field specifies where and
+# how to deliver mail.
+#
+# The transport field specifies the name of a mail delivery
+# transport (the first name of a mail delivery service entry
+# in the Postfix master.cf file).
+#
+# The interpretation of the nexthop field is transport
+# dependent. In the case of SMTP, specify a service on a
+# non-default port as host:service, and disable MX (mail
+# exchanger) DNS lookups with [host] or [host]:port. The []
+# form is required when you specify an IP address instead of
+# a hostname.
+#
+# A null transport and null nexthop result means "do not
+# change": use the delivery transport and nexthop informa-
+# tion that would be used when the entire transport table
+# did not exist.
+#
+# A non-null transport field with a null nexthop field
+# resets the nexthop information to the recipient domain.
+#
+# A null transport field with non-null nexthop field does
+# not modify the transport information.
+#
+# EXAMPLES
+# In order to deliver internal mail directly, while using a
+# mail relay for all other mail, specify a null entry for
+# internal destinations (do not change the delivery trans-
+# port or the nexthop information) and specify a wildcard
+# for all other destinations.
+#
+# my.domain :
+# .my.domain :
+# * smtp:outbound-relay.my.domain
+#
+# In order to send mail for example.com and its subdomains
+# via the uucp transport to the UUCP host named example:
+#
+# example.com uucp:example
+# .example.com uucp:example
+#
+# When no nexthop host name is specified, the destination
+# domain name is used instead. For example, the following
+# directs mail for user@example.com via the slow transport
+# to a mail exchanger for example.com. The slow transport
+# could be configured to run at most one delivery process at
+# a time:
+#
+# example.com slow:
+#
+# When no transport is specified, Postfix uses the transport
+# that matches the address domain class (see DESCRIPTION
+# above). The following sends all mail for example.com and
+# its subdomains to host gateway.example.com:
+#
+# example.com :[gateway.example.com]
+# .example.com :[gateway.example.com]
+#
+# In the above example, the [] suppress MX lookups. This
+# prevents mail routing loops when your machine is primary
+# MX host for example.com.
+#
+# In the case of delivery via SMTP, one may specify host-
+# name:service instead of just a host:
+#
+# example.com smtp:bar.example:2025
+#
+# This directs mail for user@example.com to host bar.example
+# port 2025. Instead of a numerical port a symbolic name may
+# be used. Specify [] around the hostname if MX lookups must
+# be disabled.
+#
+# The error mailer can be used to bounce mail:
+#
+# .example.com error:mail for *.example.com is not
+# deliverable
+#
+# This causes all mail for user@anything.example.com to be
+# bounced.
+#
+# REGULAR EXPRESSION TABLES
+# This section describes how the table lookups change when
+# the table is given in the form of regular expressions. For
+# a description of regular expression lookup table syntax,
+# see regexp_table(5) or pcre_table(5).
+#
+# Each pattern is a regular expression that is applied to
+# the entire address being looked up. Thus,
+# some.domain.hierarchy is not looked up via its parent
+# domains, nor is user+foo@domain looked up as user@domain.
+#
+# Patterns are applied in the order as specified in the
+# table, until a pattern is found that matches the search
+# string.
+#
+# Results are the same as with indexed file lookups, with
+# the additional feature that parenthesized substrings from
+# the pattern can be interpolated as $1, $2 and so on.
+#
+# TCP-BASED TABLES
+# This section describes how the table lookups change when
+# lookups are directed to a TCP-based server. For a descrip-
+# tion of the TCP client/server lookup protocol, see
+# tcp_table(5). This feature is not available up to and
+# including Postfix version 2.2.
+#
+# Each lookup operation uses the entire recipient address
+# once. Thus, some.domain.hierarchy is not looked up via
+# its parent domains, nor is user+foo@domain looked up as
+# user@domain.
+#
+# Results are the same as with indexed file lookups.
+#
+# CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
+# The following main.cf parameters are especially relevant.
+# The text below provides only a parameter summary. See
+# postconf(5) for more details including examples.
+#
+# empty_address_recipient
+# The address that is looked up instead of the null
+# sender address.
+#
+# parent_domain_matches_subdomains
+# List of Postfix features that use domain.tld pat-
+# terns to match sub.domain.tld (as opposed to
+# requiring .domain.tld patterns).
+#
+# transport_maps
+# List of transport lookup tables.
