That's not quite true. What is needed is an identity mapping (a -> a)
in the virtual alias table for each valid user in the virtual mailbox
table. This stops the recursion.

pierreubidata.be -> pierre.moermansmycomp1.be -> adminmycomp1.be

This is what you need in the virtual alias table:

validuser1example.com validuser1example.com
validuser2example.com validuser2example.com
...
validusernexample.com validusernexample.com
example.com catchallexample.com

I explained this exact problem to another poster just one or two days
ago.
