The bogus entries (left-hand side) need to be unique - you can have as 
many as you want, as long as they are unique.  This doesn't work:

sales at bogus.com		sales at real.com
sales at bogus.com		service at real.com

It doesn't make logical sense either (if you need it to map to multiple 
real addresses, you can use /etc/mail/aliases as well, but that's another 
discussion...)

Remember that notepad will probably add ^M's to the end of the lines 
(there's windows text files and then there's unix text files...)  That 
will probably induce breakage.  Safer might be a web/CGI form.  Then your 
cgi controls the file format (and can do input validation).  Or you can 
look at those webby system-management tools (Linuxconf was one I remember 
from a long time ago) - it might be able to edit virtuser from the web.
