Hello,

  You might need to use postfix aliases for this right now, which
work the way you want.  I'll try testing a dbmail off-site forward
and see if I get the same results.  Can you look in the relayed
message for Return-Path: headers?  See if there are multiple ones
there, or just one with [EMAIL PROTECTED] (or none at all, I guess).
I'd have to look at the rfc for proper behavior, but it seems dbmail
should leave the Return-Path: that postfix puts in there alone, so
the far end replies to that address.  If dbmail changes it itsself
(which I kind of doubt), it's probably broken.  If the far end smtp
server is putting a Return-Path: from the smtp MAIL FROM command,
then... I don't know if it ought to be configured not to do that when
a Return-Path: is already present, of if dbmail should use the
Return-Path: address in it's MAIL FROM command - but one or the other
should probably fix it.

More ramblings from the desk of,
Jesse
