Actually, qmailadmin supports having multiple forwards and aliases.
But it's not clear how it works. At least it wasn't clear to me
when I first tried to use it.
Here is how to to it
1) Create an alias or forward
2) Modify the alias or forward to add each additional destination.
I know it's not clear, but it's the best the developers could come
up with.
