When this uses SQL, the trivial rewrite service (and indirectly the
queue manager) are subject to SQL latency, availability limitations, ...

DO NOT (on critical systems) use SQL or LDAP in this context. Postfix
has no support for an unreliable trivial-rewrite service (it is supposed
to be trivial and correspondingly reliable).

Does this happen if virtual_mailbox_domains is expicitly set to something
other than $virtual_mailbox_maps? If so provide logs to document this.

Does this happen if virtual_alias_domains is expicitly set to something
other than $virtual_alias_maps? If so provide logs to document this.
