Oh! I see. Someone may correct me, but I think you can't send an email 
from a domain which isn't in the list of accepted domains. And the 
creation of Domain Aliases doesn't set the somewhat fake domain as a 
list of accepted domains and therefore, mails from that domain are 
rejected. To my knowledge, this would lead to an open relay situation.

What you may try is:

1) put this somewhere in the main.cf.template file:

         relay_domains = hash:/kolab/etc/postfix/relay_domains

2) Create the /kolab/etc/postfix/relay_domains file

3) Put this single line:

         domain2.com OK

4) Create the needed db file with the command:

         /kolab/sbin/postmap /kolab/etc/postfix/relay_domains

4) Reload the new config with:

         /kolab/sbin/kolabconf

Then, postfix should allow you to relay the fake domain2.com domain. But 
you still won't be allowed, though, to authenticate with this 
domain2.com to send mail, since the domain doesn't really exist in the 
kolab config.
