It seems likely the problem is something to do with the virtual domain forwarding table.

postconf-n:

postconf -n
alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
allow_percent_hack = no
append_dot_mydomain = no
biff = no
broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes
compatibility_level = 2
home_mailbox = Maildir/
inet_interfaces = all
inet_protocols = all
mailbox_command = /usr/bin/procmail-wrapper -o -a $DOMAIN -d $LOGNAME
mailbox_size_limit = 0
mydestination = $myhostname, localhost
myhostname = cloud1.vbz.ovh
mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8 [::ffff:127.0.0.0]/104 [::1]/128
myorigin = /etc/mailname

smtp_tls_session_cache_database = btree:${data_directory}/smtp_scache
smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMTP $mail_name (Ubuntu)
smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks permit_sasl_authenticated reject_unauth_destination
smtpd_relay_restrictions = permit_mynetworks permit_sasl_authenticated defer_unauth_destination
smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
smtpd_tls_cert_file = /etc/ssl/certs/ssl-cert-snakeoil.pem
smtpd_tls_key_file = /etc/ssl/private/ssl-cert-snakeoil.key

virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual

The problem with that turned out to be that

mydestination = $myhostname, localhost

needs to be

mydestination = $myhostname, localhost, $myorigin

At that point, hypertwins.org and ownedbycats.org started being received, but not domains hosted on cloud5. To fix that...

(13:01) Important thing: the receiving mail server needs at least two virtual address entries:

• "domain.name <anything>"
• "@domain.name <destination>" for a catch-all, or more specific addresses for non-catchall
