    Tkank you very much. I thought that 'virtual.domain anything' was needed
    to "activate" the virtual handling for 'virtual.domain'. Maybe I didn't
    understood the man-page correctly or tha man-page should explain the
    situation you described for me.

    After a quick test it seams to work fine, thanks again. Now I just have to
    follow Ralf's recommendation and also user virtual to get rid of
    /etc/aliases and local delivery behavior.
