domains = ! +local_domains

in your dnslookup router should help you there ...

but you are instead handing things off to a hubbed host - so a manualroute
router - like for example -

   send_to_sexchange:
     driver = manualroute
     domains = +local_domains
     transport = remote_smtp
     route_list = * sex.change.billygoats.com


stuck in front of the dnslookup driver might help - with a /etc/hosts entry
saying sex.change.billygoats.com is actually 192.168.2.20

Or hell, dispense with /etc/hosts entries and s/fqdn/ip/ in that above
router.
