Hello,

the system_aliases usually is the very first router for local domains,
while the catchall router should be the last one, after userforward
and localuser. If you modify system_aliases to use lsearch* and have
a catchall aliaes in the file itself, the localuser router will not be
reached anymore.

It is probably better to have a separate catchall router somehow like
this:

catchall
driver = redirect
data = ${lookup{*}lsearch{/etc/aliases}}
