Note that with delivery via LMTP, virtual_mailbox_maps (vmailbox) is
used only for recipient validation, and has no effect on delivery.

This is a wildcard mapping (not recommended, an explicit list of
individual addresses would be far better). It rewrites every input
address to <all@$myorigin>. Not clear whether that's what you want.
This suffices for recipient validation which accepts mail for addresses
that either match virtual_alias_maps or virtual_mailbox_maps. So you
don't need virtual_mailbox_maps at all:

This should probably have been in "virtual" instead, and vice versa.

Which isn't "all". Seems you got the virtual mailbox and virtual alias
files confused, or are misreporting their contents.
