If you rewrite an envelope recipient address X with virtual_alias_maps (or otherwise) into envelope recipient address Y, then Postfix will use envelope recipient address Y for transport map lookups. Therefore you will use envelope recipient address Y on the transport map left-hand side, not X. Wietse
