Alternatively, you can change the system aliases router so that it looks
up the local part in two files:

  data = ${lookup  {$local_part} lsearch {SYSTEM_ALIASES_FILE} \
             {$value} \
             {${lookup {$local_part} lsearch {OTHER_ALIASES_FILE} \
                  {$value} \
                  {} }} }
