So do you want

- one set of aliases which are valid from anywhere
- another set which are valid only from within the company

i.e. all of the "restricted" aliases have the same conditional logic?

If so then (making some guesses about what your config file looks like) just
duplicate the router that currently handles your aliases file, and in the copy
give the router a new name, change which aliases file it looks at (don't
forget to create that aliases file), and add a condition which only matches if
the message came from within the company. Then move whatever aliases need to
be restricted into that other aliases file.

For example, the condition could be something using ${if match_ip ...} and
$sender_host_address. Or $auth*, if you use SMTP AUTH.

Make sure your RCPT acl uses "require verify = recipient", of course.
