The simplest way is to have /etc/aliases remap the local part to the
appropriate server:

   /etc/aliases
    john.smith:    jsmith@???
    jane.doe:    jdoe@???


Then all you need in the router section is the standard and simple
router:

    system_aliases:
      driver = redirect
      data   = ${lookup{$local_part}lsearch*{/etc/aliases}}


Hope this helps
