I'm seeing this in my log:

2013-11-12T03:12:45.129959+01:00 mail postfix/smtpd[13775]: 3dJXXs0vySz10tc: client=mail.r0.3dz.com[5.9.40.9]
2013-11-12T03:12:47.707119+01:00 mail postfix/cleanup[27219]: warning: 3dJXXs0vySz10tc: unreasonable virtual_alias_maps map nesting for in...@example.com -- deferring delivery

I'm not seeing 3dJXXs0vySz10tc anywhere in my queue and the stuff
above is everything for QueueID 3dJXXs0vySz10tc.

Where's the mail?
mail_version = 2.10.0

It seems the client gets a:
451 4.6.0 Alias expansion error
(at least with 2.11-20131031)

I suggest examining the in...@example.com virtual alias expansion
by hand.
