You mean aliasfiles?

virtual_aliases:
driver = redirect
data = ${lookup {$local_part} lsearch {/etc/exim/domains/$domain}}

these hosts don't have real MX-entries?

then use a manualrouter (Section 19 of spec.txt)

host_route:
driver = manualroute
route_list = foo.com mail.foo.com; foobar.org mx01.foobar.org; .....

or if you need many manual routes, check the docs for the route_data
option of the manualroute-router.

Then read them again, and read the FAQ too.

Even newbies should try to find out something by themself.
Read spec.txt once, if you are confused read it twice, and have a copy
ready all the time if you start with exim.
