True enough. I was switching backends in order to figure out if that was the 
issue, and did not express myself clear enough.

Here is the current setup:

Using auth-pgsql, and its working.
This database holds email-_address_ => (clear, home, maildir, ..) mappings; 
and this works. maildrop works as well.

For example, in the auth db, a user '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' may send mail via 
smtp auth, and may receive mail to his maildir as defined in the database.
I can alias "[EMAIL PROTECTED]: [EMAIL PROTECTED]", and this works as 
expected.

However, if I try to alias a complete virtual domain to an account, this 
fails.

aliases: "@vdomain: [EMAIL PROTECTED]"
result: 550 User unknown.

Yes, I did makealiases, and -dump shows the expected result ("@vdomain: 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]").


On a related note, I cannot get mailman to work with virtual domains. Here as 
well all mails to any list address return 550.
(setup:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]: |/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman owner 
mailman)



I got the impression I am to use authentication accounts WITHOUT the domain 
part in it, and then I am to map actual mail addresses to those local 
accounts via aliases. However, that did not work as well (because makealiases 
postfixed @`cat /etc/courier/me` to it automatically?).

Regards.
