Personally, I would avoid IP aliases, because the problem is
temporary and can be handled by the sendmail config, and IP aliases
add a lower level functionality extraneous to e-mail though
impacting on it.
If I understand you correctly, you essentially need a single
rewriting rule for incoming addresses, something like this:
R$* $+ @aaa.bbb.ccc.org $* $1 $2 @hostname.aaa.org.ar $3
in ruleset 0 (in /etc/sendmail.cf). But I would look at the Bat
Book first, because my memory is fallible.
