It's not exactly a catchall.
@domain.nl %1...@otherdomain.nl
means that somen...@domain.nl is send to somen...@otherdomain.nl
I wrote that you will accept mail for non-existent recipients in
otherdomain.nl.
That is bad.
Your system will be sending backscatter mail to innocent people.

Why is that? Otherdomain has 29 users
In sendmail, when I use "@domain.nl %1...@otherdomain.nl" domain.nl wil
automatically have 29 users also.
If there is a mail send to n...@domain.nl and n...@otherdomain.nl does
not exist, it will be rejected.
In postfixadmin this will be a domain alias but that isn't working with
local virtual users.
