Victor,
Thanks for the quick responce. I have now read the man pages and am
confused......

virtual(5)
virtual_alias_domains = $virtual_alias_maps
virtual_alias_maps = mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql_virtual_alias_maps.cf,
hash:/var/mailman/data/virtual-mailman

local(5)
alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/aliases, hash:/var/mailman/data/aliases

virtual(8)
virtual_mailbox_maps = mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql_virtual_mailbox_maps.cf

Here is a line from my aliases table:
cvc_worship: "|/var/mailman/mail/mailman post cvc_worship"

Here is a line from my virtual-mailman table:
cvc_worship_at_ajrogge.com cvc_worship

By watching the logs I can see the results of the lookup on the
virtual-mailman. It is as though local(5) never runs.

I am attaching the output of postconf as a text file. I know I still need
to fix the uid issue, but figured it would wait till I got this working ;)

Thank you for your time,
aaron
