The last case can trivially be done by a domainlist *router* rather than
a director, if the domain is removed from local_domains.
xxxx:
driver = domainlist
route_list = domain anotherdomain
The new domain "otherdomain" is then passed to the next router. Or you
can add "bydns" to the routing to get it to look up MX records etc.
there and then - in which case a transport has to be added.
Or you could use a smartuser director, retaining domain in
local_domains:
xxxx:
driver = smartuser
domains = domain
new_address = $local_part@anotherdomain
but personally I prefer the router, because this isn't really a local
domain.
For the second case, you need to put
*@domain user@otherdomain
in the alias file, and set the search_type to dbm*@ instead of dbm.
