You can use groups to implement virtual alias rewriting, or local
aliases.
You cannot do virtual(8) *delivery* to a group. This means that
group expansion MUST not happen in virtual_mailbox_maps, where
you are replacing an address with its mailbox location.
Rather, group expansion MUST ONLY happen when in alias_maps
or virtual_alias_maps, where you are replacing an address
with one or more target addresses.

This result format is not suitable for group expansion. It
is only suitable for delivery to a mailbox in virtual_mailbox_maps,
which must be one-to-one.
