email. I send email to email: to_alias at domain.com that is valid alias and
email should be sent to real email folder: to at domain.com. Dovecot creating
to_alias folder and deliver the emails there. Here is the email log: / did
not see to at domain.com below /

I was playing with password_query but not sure did I'm on right direction.

password_query = \
  SELECT username AS user, password, \
    '/var/spool/postmail/%d/%n' AS userdb_home, 1002 AS userdb_uid, 1001 AS
userdb_gid \
  FROM mailbox WHERE username = (SELECT goto FROM alias WHERE address =
'%u')
