It all depends on how you want virtual users.
so virtual is more a list of users that can be accepted at a particular
domain so major use cases for that would be a relay host or you have one
system user and want to dump mail into their mailbox from one of the
users in virtual. There may be two but those are the ones off the top of
my head
userbase is you want to have mail users with different passwords,
different mailboxes, etc. So in essence you want to have multiple users
but you don't want to give the users system accounts. For userbase
https://blog.corrupted.io/2014/06/09/OpenSMTPD-virtual-users-with-sqlite.html
is an example of what I have done at my own mail site. It has 4 users in
it with a ton of aliases (that probably should be virtuals but I wont
nitpick on that right now)

Hm, sorry, I still don't get what you want to tell me.
My understanding of aliasing is the following:
https://github.com/OpenSMTPD/OpenSMTPD/wiki/Do-I-want-alias-to-virtual%3F
As I am not working with system users I feel like virtual is the way to
go for me. As you seem to know what I am missing here I would really
appreciate if you could tell me what exactly this is.
The manual pages don't make me feel like I am wrong in choosing the
virtual way of aliasing.
Thanks for your help.
