Hello, Well, that's the way it's supposed to work - ie. deliver_to set to the user_idnr for dbmail delivery - I just thought maybe a last-ditch lookup was made for a matching username in 2.x (which may or may not be a good thing to add .. seems safe if the alias and deliver_to are identical). If you create an account with only an external forward, does it work? Ie. do external forwards *ever* work? Perhaps it's just something set wrong in your sendmail path in dbmail.conf or otherwise in your local outgoing mail?
