Won't work will it?

/etc/mail/virtusertable:

@domain.com	dummyaccount

/etc/aliases:

dummyaccount:	localpop, remotepop@remotepop.com

This forwards all of the email to a single user account on
remotepop. The desired result would be that email coming
in for * would do the following

*@domain.com -> localpop

and

*@domain.com -> *@remotepop.com
