Its called 'virtual _mailbox_', for a good reason.

Postfix/Virtual with Maildrop is a really ugly setup, dont waste your
time unless you know exactly what you are doing, for example the aliases
wont be case-insensitive anymore because they are (ab)used as lookup-keys
for Maildrop.

Google for 'postfix maildrop' and be prepared to invest considerable more
time than simply replacing postfix (including the sasl-crap) with courier.

Postfix can authenicate users _only_ aginst /etc/shadow, no PAM or anything
else, while courier contains everything you need out of the box.

Postfix is only great as long as you either have every user in /etc/shadow
or if you dont want to execute anything at delivery.
