Hi,

I've been racking my brain trying to get this to work and I know it
shouldn't be this difficult but I just cant seem to get it right. I
need to set up a virtual domain and have all mail forwarded to a
file. I've tried creating virtual_mailbox files and virtual_aliases
files, etc and I've encountered a number of errors. Can someone tell
me where I'm going wrong?

I've read so many how-to's that it's all muddled now:

My actual domain: mycompany.com

My virtual domain: virtualcompany.com (no mx, no dns) There are no
users in this domain and I want to forward anyuservirtualdomain.com
to either a virtual mailbox or a file.
