To Robert, Ralf, Wietse:

First of all, Thank you. Mail forwarding now works great!

The culprit was a conflict bw virtual and transport map settings. I finally
realized that I placed the domain (delmonte-phil.com) in both. After
removing the settings in virtual, mail was flowing like a river :-)

To Wietse:

1. Sir, would it be possible for postfix check to check such ambiguities in
main.cf settings?
2. I notice that if I send a mail to userX128.1.100.101, mail will bounce w
a "mail loops back to myself" message. If I send a mail to
userXmail.kitchen.org, mail will be delivered fine. But 128.1.100.101 is
mail.kitchen.org. I had to put the address 128.1.100.101 in mydestination
(when in fact, mail.kitchen.org will do). Is this necessary?

Thanks,
-botp

ps: I hope my questions aren't too dumb :-)
