What is mail2? Is that an alias for mail4? (i.e. they are the same machine)

So your virtual user database will be queried by smtpd to ensure a user
is listed, the address rewritten by trivial-rewrite but not delivered
against by the virtual agent as it doesn't have any virtual domains. You
get away with this with SMTP mail as the smtpd process gets the
trivial-rewrite to add the aliased address and the delivery agent will
use that. MailScanner uses the sendmail command (Queue injection) so
won't have that rewrite process. Looks like your main.cf is set-up
partially for local and partially for virtual domains.

Which way would you like to go, virtual or local?
