Very "blurry" :-)
Check the log file: /var/log/mail. Errors will show there.
Remember that in order to receive emails trough an MTA you need a domain name, with an MX entry. It is just a thought, you don't specify.

Hi, I'm trying again. I tried to remove and reinstall postfix (and fetchmail) from my PC, to start from a clean configuration. Re-configured postfix using YaST2 and started the daemon.
Then I tried a connection "by hand" from another account directly to the port [..] mail from: bucciarelli@to.astro.it 250 Ok rcpt to: vecchiato 450
: Sender address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table
You need either a local user (login account) named "bucciarelli", or an alias to an existing user in $alias_maps (usually /etc/aliases).
This sounds strange, the same direct connection to another PC with SuSE 9.0 works fine (I have 9.1).
