This is likley a virtual domain issue that you are having.  Not
totally familiar with postfix, and I've never solved this same problem
in sendmail either.

But you are probably specifing both the jeff(_dot_)covey(_at_)pobox(_dot_)com 
and
jeff(_at_)jeffcovey(_dot_)net to redirect to the jeff(_at_)localhost mailbox 
inside of
your virtualuser setup.  This looses the '+test' in the translation.
The jeff(_at_)(_dot_)(_dot_)(_dot_) is easy to fix, you're already accepting 
mail for the
domain, just let that user fall naturally to the local user.  The
jeff(_dot_)covey(_at_)(_dot_)(_dot_) I don't have the answer for, you'll have 
to see if you
can do some left side wildcard matching.  I know in sendmail I can do:

garbage(_at_)domain(_dot_)com    karrde+%1(_at_)localhost

to have a throway type addy just send to my real address with the +garbage

Good luck, hopefully this send you on the right trail.
