Hi Wietse,
Thank you for your response.
In the .forward file, I was expecting that the "username only"
would get delivered because the aliases file shows that the
alias for the username is username@thatsamemachine
but it appears that the mail server is not recognizing that it
is the one to accept the mail for that user. Is the /etc/alaises
file not referenced when the .forward file is read?
Aloha, Sharon

Postfix has a much different behavior. Both "username" and "\username"
get forwarded off and then sent back (because it should have been a local
delivery)
Why should this be delivered locally?
A domain-less address will get @$myorigin appended. A domain
is delivered locally only if is listed in $mydestination.
