Is the user name really domain-company? Or is the user name domain, and you'd
like to have that user control a number of virtual domains, one of which is
company.com.ar?
In either case, the entry in virtualdomains will cause mail to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] to be delivered locally to domain-company-user.
If the user name is domain-company, you'll need ~domain-company/.qmail-user to
control delivery.
If the user name is domain, you'll need ~domain/.qmail-company-user to control
delivery.
If you don't have either user name, you'll need
~alias/.qmail-domain-company-user to control delivery.
It all boils down to the local delivery of mail sent to domain-company-user.
Follow how that delivery would work, and it'll tell you what kind of .qmail-
file you need.

Don't do that! If you put company.com.ar in locals, then the virtualdomains
entry will be ignored, and things won't work they way you want them to. A
particular domain should be in either locals or virtualdomains--never both.
