No, but I know something about postfix.

Do you understand what this messge says? I can infer from it that
"ncshans.newingtoncs.co.za" is listed in $mydestination and that
"hansdp" is not found in a map listed in $local_recipient_maps.

What are those lines? Uncomment those lines and post the output of

No, it's part of postfix.

Where the table is and what data store is holding it is specified by
the $local_recipient_maps parameter. The table can be a simple text
file or could be a SQL or LDAP database.

What is this "BitDefender" thing? Do you know what it is? Do you
know what it does? Do you wholly trust the people who made it to run
your system? What I am getting at is you should not apply -any-
configuration items to any software, particularly server software
exposed to the internet, until you first understand what the settings
do and have decided that those settings are desirable for your site.
