postfix aliases backlash

When editing email and ftp users and adding email forwarding - it creates a line in /etc/aliases (or mysql or anywhere according to the main.cf) and the line contains a backlash, which should not be there:

name.domain someemail@email.com,\name.domain

the backslash is only right before the name.domain which should deliver the email to local Mailbox. the whole line is than invalid.

No, the backslash is intentional - it means to not do any more alias parsing for that destination, and to instead deliver directly to that user's mailbox.

Is this not working for you in some way?
