For starters, you should read the Postfix documentation. You might also try
posting on the Postfix forum. Check out http://postfix.com for further details.

Now, before you go any further, the log file is telling you that your
'transport' is out of date. You have to run 'postmap' on it and then restart
Postfix to get it corrected. Try: 'postmap /usr/local/etc/postfix/transport'
assuming that your transport map is named 'transport'. This will update the
mapping.

You should always supply the complete output of: "postconf -n" when asking
help regarding Postfix. It saves a lot of time.
