I have a few accounts who forward a copy of all their mail to gmail addresses. For example, this account mirrors to a gmail account so I have access to my mailing list archives even when I am working on my server.
While testing postfix 2.10 I am getting:
Jul 31 13:10:20 mail postfix/error[71592]: A4A0D118B50A: to=<*munged*@gmail.com>, orig_to=<kre...@kreme.com>, relay=none, delay=0.21, delays=0.2/0/0/0.01, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (mail transport unavailable)
This is happening on all the accounts that forward to gmail.

I am also now getting this error on mail to the postfix list, so it is possible that when this clears up a duplicate of this post will end up on the list. I apologize in advance, I'll try and remove it from the queue.

Looks as if you clobbered your smtp transport "smtp unix ... smtp"
normal logging is sufficient to solve whatever problem you're
having. As in this case.

adding
smtp unix - - - - - smtp
didn't solve the problem, though it led to many different errors.
