I already have virtual_mailbox_domains listing domains that are destined for virtual_transport = dovecot. The issue was that I'm now dealing with new domains that are not going there. I suppose I could still do that and pretend they are going there ... attempts would fail because no users in the new domains exist there. But what about virtual_alias_domains? What does that really do? It's default value is virtual_alias_map, so it is unclear to me if that is a list of domains or what. -- sHiFt HaPpEnS!
