One hack is to write a simple shell script, mine is called qmail-aliasemail,
that calls fastforward then runs another process if the user is still not
found.
This is a real simplified version but it should get you started. To use it
change you .qmail-default to call this script instead of fatforward. This
script will still bounce the messages but get you a copy of them too. If you
want to just absorbe the messages change the exit to exit 0.
#####
MailAgent={put in your path to your delivery wrapper}
Temp_File=/tmp/Temp_Alias_File.$$
cat > $Temp_File
fastforward -d /etc/aliases.cdb < $Temp_File
Return_Val=$?
if [ "$Return_Val" != "0" ]
then
$MailAgent {put in desired email address} < $Temp_File
fi
rm $Temp_File
exit $Return_Val
