I have this log entry:
2015-01-14T09:26:39.448011+00:00 mx01 postfix/error[29736]:
5F8E810015D: to=,
orig_to=, relay=none, delay=0.09,
delays=0.05/0.03/0/0.01, dsn=5.0.0, status=bounced (User unknown in
virtual alias table)Jan 14 09:26:39 mx01 postfix/error[29736]: 5F8E810015D: to=, orig_to=, relay=none,
delay=0.09, delays=0.05/0.03/0/0.01, dsn=5.0.0, status=bounced (User
unknown in virtual alias table)
what is the difference between to and orig_to in above log? as i am trying to diagnose a bounce back, unable to resolve it.

In most cases, the
orig_to
is for when postfix received a message which is an alias, or a mailing list, or any number of situations where the originalTo:
is not the same as where the final delivery ends up. Obviously, this sort of information means that postfix is aware of the redirection.
