I am a newbie.. and sometimes i find it hard to read the manuals and
understand it. So, I understand if this user is having a hard problem.. my
virtual file looks like this... it works

yourvirtual.com VIRTUAL
virtualuservirtual.com userfinaldestination.com

basicly, you are telling postfix that yourvirtual.com is the name of the
virtual host. virtualuser is a user that doesnt need to have a local user
account on your system, email gets then forward to userfinaldestination.com

Once Again, I am a newbie also. I had a heck of a hard tiome figuring basic
stuffs out... so if i can be of some help, u can email me.
