There is no reference to virtual_users in the above virtual_alias_maps. I think you are confusing virtual_alias_maps and virtual_mailbox_maps; this is not uncommon. For a virtual address to be delivered to a virtual mailbox, the domain in question must be present in virtual_mailbox_domains AND the address must resolve to a mailbox in virtual_mailbox_maps. Use postmap -q "query" maptype:/map/location to validate your maps. -- J.
