You can have exim rewrite the address using this rewrite rule
(substitute with your host/domain name) :

*@dman.ddts.net "${lookup{$1}lsearch{/etc/email-addresses} {$value}fail}" frFs

and then put
    oryx: fursuiter@???
in /etc/email-addresses.


You can add additional lines for the other user accounts on your
system, if they have a different address than $USER@$HOST.
