I am running a FreeBSD 2.0 machine  that has a Cw line for several domains
in it. Lately, several of my users have requested special user ids for
their own purposes, such as support, techsup, etc.

So, what I'd like to do is be able to keep these in an alias file and have
something like this work:

support@domain1.com: userx
support@domain2.com: usery
support@domain3.com: userz

However, when sendmail gets mail for support, no matter the domain, it gets
aliased to userx. Is there anyway to rewrite the rules to handle this
condition without having to alias every user on the system? Thanks in 
advance.
