If I understand you correctly, you want a@your.machine and b@your.machine to receive mail, but the way you want to do it is, people will send mail to yourname@a.domain.com and yourname@b.domain.com and these mails will all be sent by your ISP to your mail account, and you then want to filter them into the appropriate mailboxes / forward them to the appropriate local users. You can do it with procmail. It's there in the ports. It's a bit nontrivial to use. There are lots of links/tutorials/other stuff at http://www.ling.helsinki.fi/users/reriksso/procmail/links.html Rahul.
