From section 22.2 of the spec:

  It is usual to set no_verify on redirect routers which handle
  users’ .forward files, as in the example above.
  [...]
  ...the existence of a .forward file is unimportant when verifying an
  address. What should be checked is whether the local part is a valid user
  name or not.

I don't quite follow this.  If I have [EMAIL PROTECTED] as a user account, 
but [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], and [EMAIL PROTECTED] all go to the 
same 
place via redirect routers, shouldn't any one of these verify?  What happens 
if the user is sending mail with a default from address set to one of his 
aliases (this is the case sometimes)?

I don't have no_verify in place now, and am just a bit hesitant to add it 
without understanding the implications more fully.

Cheers,
