Mail Forwarding broken

Yes.

Afaik the mail forwarding user type and the corresponding virtual_alias_maps_forwarding.cf (or so) is shipped with a vanilla kolab 3.1. But it's possible that not all technical possibilities like catchall, etc are enabled per default via postfix on a vanilla installation.

Maybe if you've upgraded it's possible that the upgrade didn't modified your kolab.user_types table.

But overall: The mail forwarding feature (forwarding only ldap entries) is not a kolab feature. It's just a simple clever/correct usage of ldap attributes + postfix configuration. The kolab-web admin and it's predefined user_types just helps us/gives us an admin GUI to manage accounts instead of doing things manually with ldapadd on the cli
