Ahhhh.... I perceived you mean that the asterisks only worked on either the address or system name side of the entire email address.
So I changed my rules on the test VM system to:
begin rewrite
root@* realemailaddress@??? Eh
*@hostname* realemailaddress@??? Eh
*@*subdomain* realemailaddress@??? Eh
And these rewrite rules worked with the command line test, and then sending real test emails.
Waiting to update the configuration on the real server.
I anticipate success there as well.

Yes, that page I had been working from to build these rewrite rules.
I appreciate the assistance very much!
I am thankful,
