    I was able to define this without any custom transport:

local_domains:
        driver = smartuser,
        require_files = /etc/exim/local-domains/$domain;
        new_address = ${lookup {$local_part} lsearch
{/etc/exim/local-domains/$domain} {$value} fail}

local_domains_star:
        driver = smartuser,
        require_files = /etc/exim/local-domains/$domain;
        new_address = ${expand:${lookup {*} lsearch
{/etc/exim/local-domains/$domain} {$value} fail}}

    (beware of line wrap)

    e.g, the file /etc/exim/local-domains/xyz.com may contain:

bob:    john@???
*:    mary@???

    or

*:    $local_part@???

    The latter would make xyz.com and mydomain.com equivalent
    in a manner consistent with the previous case.
