This configuration is for qmail delivering directly to system users.
You've added a forwarding step, which is why you're getting the error
message.

> cat /var/qmail/alias/.qmail-mt
> &o2w

If you want to continue using alias, you'll need to change the
.qmail-mt file and add a .qmail-mt-default.  The missing
.qmail-mt-default file is why you got the error message you did.

I don't recommend going this route, but you can.  If you decide to,
you'll need to modify .qmail-mt to use formail (comes with procmail)
or reformail (comes with maildrop) to insert a new header in the
message that contains the original recipient address
([EMAIL PROTECTED]).  Something like X-Originally-To would work.

/var/qmail/alias/.qmail-mt:
| formail -I "X-Originally-To: $RECIPIENT" | forward o2w

Create /var/qmail/alias/.qmail-mt-default:
| formail -I "X-Originally-To: $RECIPIENT" | forward "o2w-$EXT"

Then set the RECIPIENT_HEADER in your config file to
"X-Originally-To", so that tmda-filter knows who the original
recipient was (when you forward, the original recipient is lost).

With the exception of adding a .qmail-mt-default that preserves $EXT,
the above changes are not necessary to solve the particular problem of
the dated address not going through, but they will be necessary down
the road, as soon as the "mt" address starts receiving mail from
people not in the whitelist.

Perhaps an easier way to handle this is to set up 'mt' in the
users/assign file:

/var/qmail/users/assign:
+mt:o2w:<o2w_UID>:<o2w_GID>:/home/o2w:::
