VERP_README says:
You need to set up a file named .forward+listname with the
commands that process all the mail that is sent to the
owner-listname address.
aliases(5) says:
|command
Mail is piped into command. Commands that contain special char-
acters, such as whitespace, should be enclosed between double
quotes. See local(8) for details of delivery to command.
When the command fails, a limited amount of command output is
mailed back to the sender. The file /usr/include/sysexits.h
defines the expected exit status codes. For example, use "|exit
67" to simulate a "user unknown" error, and "|exit 0" to imple-
ment an expensive black hole.
In other words the message content (head and body) appear on the
standard input stream of the command that you configure.

PHP uses the Postfix sendmail command. See the section titled "VERP
support in the Postfix sendmail command" in the VERP_README file.
This section will tell you that you need to specify the -XV option
on the Postfix sendmail command line.
The PHP documentation at http://www.php.net/mail describes how to
supply additional parameters (such as -XV) for the Postfix sendmail
command line.
