So are you really using "yaa"?  http://frost.ath.cx/software/yaa

It seems to work by editing the postfix virtual map.  Yuck.  You could
probably use a couple of the current plugins, modifying them to edit
that file, but generally, this is a poor solution, and you really don't
want your web server to have access to your MTA's configuration files!

You'd probably be better served by re-thinking your forwarding solution.
 Postfix's local delivery agent obeys .forward files, so you could
install the vacation binary and use vacation_local plugin out of the
box.  Or you could install courier-maildrop and use courier_vacation
plugin.  Something like that...  in general, I think that you get far
more power and flexibility if you abstract your virtual users into a
database environment, be that LDAP or MySQL...
