Has worked this way for 20 years. The problem is that there is
only one queue file record (for alias1). That record cannot be
deleted as long as one of (user1, user2, user3) is deferred.
The solution is to force Postfix to write the addresses to a queue
file before attempting delivery, so that it can delete individual
recipients from the queue file.
Add an "owner-alias1: address" entry to the local aliases file,
or use virtual_alias_maps instead.
