Thanks for all your answers to my question, I ended up exploring rewrite
rules to solve my problem, and while learning my exim.conf better, I
found out that Debian has a cool little feature lying in it:
# This rewriting rule is particularly useful for dialup users who
# don't have their own domain, but could be useful for anyone.
# It looks up the real address of all local users in a file
*@kolon ${lookup{$1}lsearch{/etc/email-addresses}\
{$value}fail} bcfrF
Which means that I can simply put a 'mbp: morten@???' in
/etc/email-addresses, and now all e-mails from 'mbp' will be rewritten
as 'morten@???'.
