If you want to do it automagically rather than having a bucket load of aliases and virtusertable entries have you considered "procmail" ?
You can have a global procmail setting for all emails delivered to the particular box, then use procmail expressions to grep out and redliver what you need.
Martin Mcarthy has written an excellent book on Procmail which you may find useful if you go down this route, alternatively you can google for procmail answers too!

My personal opinion is what you want can have in some cases unpredictable results, so I propose you to use only some kind of list managers (as listar for example)

Hi,
I posted this query a few weeks ago but never received a response. I'm guessing that I didn't put things right, so here is another go.
The company that I work for currently has email addresses in the format of:-
firstname.surname.ext@example.com
Which we use for various marketing campaigns (therefore the .ext bit is variable).
Currently we have this setup as distribution lists with exchange so that any email that goes to this addressess goes both to the sales person and to a catch all mailbox which is then input into our systems.
Thanks for the suggestion Romeo, although I'm not really sure it that would be any better than the way we currently do it as it would still require manual configuration and that is what i'm trying to get away from.
I'm guessing that exim can probably do this using regular expression matching but unfortunately the server doesn't have this installed and my boss doesn't want anything new on the box (an old RH7.3 machine).
