It's defiantly wrong to place it in the locals. Qmail looks in the locals
first. If it finds the needed domain, it will check for a local user, if
it's not found, it will bounce.
What's the error message that you are getting?
Make sure it's also in the rcpthosts.
stockdigest.net should be in the rcpthosts and the virtualhosts file.
That's it.
