My prefered method of dealing with this problem has been to us exim as
the SMTP server. Configure it for local deliveries to only a single or
small number of domains (the domains that any of your clients should be
allowed to use). Then to set up a per domain alias file, with the
virtual domains kept in a text file. All addresses at the virtual
domains are rewriten to a valid address at the local domain, or else
where.
If the documentation at www.exim.org is not sufficiant I can quickly
prepare something, as it is very easy.

Tim.
