Yeah, that works for rewriting (my regex fu is strong too :-D), but my
/etc/mail/vadomains file is used for here too:
local_domains = "lsearch;/etc/mail/virtualdomainlist: \
partial-lsearch;/etc/mail/vadomains"
so they'd have to be in the vadomains file anyway.
That said, it's not the end of the world if I have to list all the
occurences, I just wanted to make sure there wasn't a smarter way to do it.

Well, I'd usually do that, but we have a split DNS setup, and if I don't
rewrite the header and envelope from, hosts outside the firewall will not
accept the Email (not that they'd be any reason for
root@??? to send Email outside of VA, but better
safe as they say).
I'm used to tracking machines by looking at the from host in the Received
line, it's worked fine so far.
Thanks for your help,
