You  can  choose  a  sub-mailbox creation setting on each domain and select
what to do when the sub-mailbox doesn't already exist:
  + Create. Creates the sub-mailbox and delivers the message.
  + Send to Inbox. (the message is delivered to "main".)
  + Bounce. Bounces the mail as an invalid user.

I'm not sure I understand the question.
