same way if i send mail to autoreply user then also sender get two mail.

  • Oh, and relevant logs would be good, too.

  • Post the output of "postconf -n" in code tags so they're readable.

Most likely you have a content filter and the always_bcc is being called both before and after the content filter. Customise the smtpd either before or after the content filter to include

-o receive_override_options=no_address_mappings

(Note that options in master.cf can't contain spaces).

For me 'enable_original_recipient = No' in main.cf did the trick.:-)
