qmail doesn't really limit the size of the local part of an email
address. Perhaps the OS is limiting the length of the username, when
qmail uses the qmail-getpw call to determine if an address is local. To
test this, run:

/var/qmail/bin/qmail-getpw <long username> | tr '\0' '\n'

and see what comes back. If you do find that the username is getting
truncated, you'll have to make an entry in /var/qmail/users/assign for
this user to override the qmail-getpw call. See man qmail-users.

For more info on aliasing, read /var/qmail/doc/INSTALL.alias
