It seems that local lookup for owner-$user in the alias database, and
once the alias found (and it will as we have static:) it substitute
Envelope From to owner-$user instead of just $user. And I have not
found the option to override it.

However changing static to simple regexp completely solved the issue:

main.cf:
real_alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
local_recipient_maps = proxy:unix:passwd.byname $real_alias_maps
alias_maps = alias_maps = regexp:/etc/postfix/catch-all-local.regexp

catch-all-local.regexp:
!/^owner-/ redirect-hereexample.org

Thanks a lot for insight!

Dimitri.
