So this causes backscatter in postfix?

/etc/postfix/virtual.regexp
/^(postmaster|root|abuse|editor)@lists\.example\.com$/     $address@concealed
/^(.*)-owner\@lists\.example\.com$/                        $address@concealed
/^sympa\@lists\.example\.com$/                             address@concealed
/^(.*)\@lists\.example\.com$/                              $address@concealed

/etc/postfix/transport.regexp

/^(listmaster|postmaster|root|abuse|sympa-request|editor)@lists\.example\.com$/     	maildrop:
/^.*+owner@lists\.example\.com$/                                     			sympabounce:
/^.*\@lists\.example\.com$/                                          			sympa:
and /etc/postfix/master.cf
#sympa        unix  -       n       n       -       -       pipe
   flags=R user=sympa argv=/home/sympa/bin/queue ${recipient}
#sympabounce  unix  -       n       n       -       -       pipe
   flags=R user=sympa argv=/home/sympa/bin/bouncequeue ${user}

Thanks!
