  Well... it is a sendmail question, so comp.mail.sendmail is probably
the way to go :)  

The basic idea is to use a user database as described in the
comp.mail.sendmail faq.  You probably want to get sendmail 8.7.3 and do
a couple of other things like that too...

The idea would be to map users to addresses:

bob     bob@bob-domain.whatever
frank       frank@frank-domain.whatever
