The configuration will depend on how you store your list of addresses.
But the idea is having a first "accept" router that will check if you
handle the domain and the existence of the address and, if it exists,
will send the mail to an "appendfile" transport which will use "file =
/home/pete/mail/$domain/$local_part/inbox".
A second "accept" router will check if you handle the domain and will
send the mail to an "appendfile" transport which will use "file =
/home/pete/mail/inbox".

We need to know how you will store your list of virtual domains/users.
