add a rewrite rule for it centrally, here's ours:

*@^[^.]+\$    \
  "${lookup ldap {ldap:HOST_BASE?host?sub?\
    (&(cn=${quote_ldap:$domain.uio.no})(host=*))}\
    {$local_part@${lc:${domain}.uio.no}}fail}"        Eh


as you can see, we use LDAP as our catalog of valid hostnames, and
HOST_BASE is the DN for that tree. you could use a dnsdb lookup
instead.

if you need to support more than one suffix, it gets pretty ugly.
