Er, what you've given there is a mixture of director and router. You
can't put "hosts" on a director. You probably need:

  foobar:
    domains = mupp.net
    local_parts = valpen
    driver = smartuser
    new_address = anotheruser@???


in order to do the change of user (if you have just one user, that's how
to do it. If you have a zillion such users, you'll want to learn about
lookups so you can put a list in a file.)

If you actually want to send all mupp.net mail to yabbadabbado.mupp.net
you'll need another director:

  mupp:
    domains = mupp.net
    driver = smartuser
    transport = mupp


and a transport

mupp:
driver = smtp
hosts = yabbadabbado.mupp.net

In Exim 4 this will be easier because you can specify the host in the
router and avoid having to have a separate transport.
