Postfix won't send to external server with same domain name

I’ve seen this question asked quite a few times, but none of the answers are working for me. I’m trying to send email from the server (let’s call it www.server.com) to user@server.com and it is rejected as postfix can’t find the user. It works just fine to send to user@anotherserver.com. I’ve edited the config file (and restarted postfix) about 50 time, but to to no avail (mostly editing the line ‘mydestination = $myhostname’, to remove any variables, add and subtract some of them.

Here’s my anonymised config file:

# See /usr/share/postfix/main.cf.dist for a commented, more complete version


# Debian specific:  Specifying a file name will cause the first
# line of that file to be used as the name.  The Debian default
# is /etc/mailname.
#myorigin = /etc/mailname

biff = no

# appending .domain is the MUA's job.
