Yes, I've tried this but it didn't work...
btw I'm using FreeBSD-6.1-STABLE
and for me is /usr/local/etc/postfix/virtual
and in this file I have all accounts like this:

=================================
user1@domain user1@domain
user2@domain user2@domain
user3@domain user3@domain
...
...
...
/================================
and I've tried to add something like this:

mario@domain mario@domain
mario.pavlov@domain mario@domain

but it didn't work...
what could be the problem ?
