Thank you for the clarification.

This one was already enabled/uncommented:
#define CHKUSER_ENABLE_EZMLM_LISTS

I have now enabled this one:
#define CHKUSER_ENABLE_USERS_EXTENSIONS

This one was already enabled:
#define CHKUSER_USERS_DASH '-'

I finally made everything work. For future searchers,
this was the solution:

1- rebuild vpopmail after passing the --enable-qmail-ext
argument to its configure script

2- uncomment/enable both the following:
      #define CHKUSER_ENABLE_ALIAS_DEFAULT
      #define CHKUSER_ENABLE_USERS_EXTENSIONS
    in chkuser_settings.h

3- rebuild qmail (in my case, netqmail-1.05)

Thank you, Tonino.
