10.4.4 MU#41 | Postfix Not Sending Emails to Specific users

fearz

Regular Pleskian
Hi,

Recently I started receiving 551 error with User unknown in virtual mailbox table when sending an email to a specific user, I used to send emails fine to him..suddenly, I received the mentioned error.

I followed Igor's advice in : http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?t=105131

I added the recipient email manually using the last command, and now it send...

Why wasn't that email automatically added? do i have to add recipients manually each time?

What could be the problem?
