How exactly are the 'forwarded' emails generated? You've mentioned an alias lookup already but it isn't entirely clear how these are being generated.
The router above will punt anything for a recipient which is *not* in the local_domains domain list to your Amazon smarthost.
If you want to catch messages which have some other condition and deal with them locally, you'll need another router with a condition that can identify them (and a corresponding condition on this router to not handle them).
