	The alias expansions et.al. happen entirely inside the router.
	Therefore there must be something else wrong.
	(The mailbox is also uterly unable to do alias expansions, thus
	 if it works, while the procmail does not...)

	Could you show (me) a verbose trace of such a delivery test ?
	Supply also your current  scheduler.conf.

	$ echo test | mailx -v -s test some-test-address > mail.log 2>&1

	Follow that log thru -- last line should be:
		scheduler done processing ...
	and them mail it to me.
