Order of virtual_alias_maps was wrong. email2email mapping belongs into
second place.

 Now you need to tell Postfix that these two mappings should be searched
 by adding this line to your ``main.cf``::
 
-    $> postconf -e virtual_alias_maps=mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-email2email.cf,mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual-alias-maps.cf
+    $> postconf -e virtual_alias_maps=mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual-alias-maps.cf,mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-email2email.cf
 
+Please note that the order of the two mappings are important here. Postfix will
+look for all matching entries in the first virtual-aliases mapping and use them
+as aliases. Only if there are *no* results found then Postfix will consult the
+second *email2email* mapping.

 You did it! All mappings are set up and the database is generally ready to be
 filled with domains and users. Make sure that only 'root' and the 'postfix'
 user can read the cf files - after all your database password is stored there::
