Yes,

Continued below....

How do you want to handle delivery to aliases. Say you
have the
following scenario:

2 dbmail servers (A and B)

Postfix routes a mail, [EMAIL PROTECTED], to server A. On
server A, the
aliases [EMAIL PROTECTED] expands to a local delivery (no
problem), and a
delivery to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Is the mail just sent, eventually going through Postfix
again and ending
up on server B?

We are currently using this routing solution in
postfix+cyrus+ldap.... we are setting it up on
postfix+dbmail+mysql this week.

It works great... there is certainly some extra traffic
meaning a message that round robins to postfix on server A
which is then forwarded to server B based on alias within
postfix, but as you said it is simple and works very well.
OK, nice. I thought of some solutions with global (present on all dbmail-databaes) alias tables, but that seems very complicated. Just routing messages through postfix again is indeed a lot simpler.

Thanks,
Ilja
