You're confusing 2 things here: you can certainly map more than one
alias to a single mailbox, for example:

alias1: joe
alias2: joe

Email to alias1@ and alias2@ will be sent to joe@

The error you are getting from postalias is because you have the same
alias defined twice in your file, for example:

alias1: joe
alias1: bloggs

In this case, postalias doesn't know which alias you really want, hence
the warning.

If you want one alias to map to more than one single system mailbox,
then use an entry like this:

alias: joe, bloggs
