The biggest problem is the naming ;) - I often confuse virtual MDA with
virtual table while reading things and stuff...

I was going to try exactly this, since most users on my box are to be
transported by virtual and I'd like to avoid the need to add every
domain to the transport map.
I was thinking of trying
local_transport = virtual
and adding transport-map entries
localhost local:
localhost.$mydomain local:
$myhostname local:
(and some special hosts :)
Would that be enough, or is "mydestination = $virtual_mailbox_maps"
needed? It should not do any bad, since virtual transport always looks
up the complete address in the table, so there should not be any
problems with equal local part users (user at domain1 and user at domain2
are the same if local_transport = local and both domains are listed in
$mydestination, correct? Short would be "sendmail style"?)
