double check the man pages, but if you want qmail to accept mail from a
domain, it must reside in locals. Re-read the virtualhost section here for
clarity on what its purpose is.

its not clear what you are trying to accomplish. Do you want your mail
server to accept mail from otherdomain1 and otherdomain2? If so, then they
should be in locals.
