Obviously not! The thing that is doing the rewriting has to know what it
is rewriting as!
Sounds like you need to export a file to the rewriting server containing
a table of rewriting addresses, e.g. if you want to rewrite "this@here" to
"that@there" you'd have
this@here that@there
Then use a rewriting rule containing a lookup:
*@* ${lookup{$1@$2}lsearch{/that/file}{$value}fail} fr
Alternatively, if the data is in an LDAP or MySQL database, Exim can
read it directly.
