Rewriting is almost never the right way to redirect mail.

I would do this by using '**: who.knows' for the second type of default,
and putting a smartuser director after the virtual dorector to do;

virtdefault: 
  driver = smartuser
  domains = VIRTUALDOMAINS
  new_address = "${lookup{**} LOOKUPTYPE {ALIASFILE} {$local_part@$value} \
                    fail}"
  no_more



That way you could have some domains with one type of default and others
with another type of default.

Completely untested.
