Ich hätte eigentlich darauf kommen können, das ich meine Frage auch in deutsch stellen kann, ist ja schließlich nicht das erste Mal das ich meine Fragen auf der postifx Mailingliste stelle und dankenswerterweise immer nette Unterstützung erfahren habe.

Da ich allerdings auf mehreren Mailinglisten unterwegs bin, war englisch jetzt irgendwie die Macht der Gewohnheit.
In diesem Sinne, danke für die Beantwortung meiner Fragen :)

according to the book of Postfix and from my understanding the
purpose of virtual_alias_domains is exactly the same
like mydestination which is to be the final destination for the
domain names specified.
Domains in mydestination get delivered by "local".

The difference is that virtual_alias_domains doesn`t need to have a
correlation to the host machine, right?
?

But what does that mean in practice?
Wouldn`t it be the same if i decide to set all domain names postifx
is the final destination for, in mydestination instead of
virtual_alias_domains?
Domains listed in virtual_alias_domains usually use
virtual_alias_maps to map the address to ANOTHER address, which is
then delivered someplace else (maybe using "local", maybe it goes to
yet another machine)

I dont exactly understand the difference and whats even more
confusing for me is the difference between virtual_alias_domains &
virtual_mailbox_domains.
virtual_alias_domains: just rewrite the recipient address
virtual_mailbox_domains: deliver the mails using "virtual"
