However, since you want to do the rewriting _after_ the routing (in
order to pick up the aliases), what you want is a rewrite rule on the
final transport. But this will only do part of the job. It will be able
to rewrite the address to which you are actually delivering. If a
message has two such recipients, each one will see a different copy, in
which only their address has been rewritten.

Of course, you could use a global rewrite rule to rewrite everything
from an alias list when the message arrives. Maybe that would do what
you want?
