Initial is just more previous; no conceptual difference here.

Directors:
batch_foo:
driver = aliasfile,
transport = foo_transport;
file = /aliases/foo
batch_bar:
driver = aliasfile,
transport = bar_transport;
file = /aliases/bar
Plus if you like, a smartuser to catch the remaining local parts.
Or even
batch_foo:
local_parts = lsearch;/localparts/foo,
driver = smartuser,
transport = foo_transport
batch_bar:
local_parts = lsearch;/localparts/bar,
driver = smartuser,
transport = bar_transport
OK, that means you have to have two files and perhaps that is what you
are trying to avoid? Nevertheless, this is a *directing* problem, not an
*aliasing* problem, and any solution should be done using directing
methods. Then you don't have a previous address to confuse things!

The above scheme will do that, but that's not what you said above. You
said the *initial* envelope address. They are not the same if the
initial address was foobar and got turned info foo1 by some other
aliasing. Sounds like you want previous after all... :-)
