Use virtual_alias_maps, as shown below.

Use a virtual alias mapping from "r...@dayjob.org" to the collector
email address. This is a variation on
/usr/local/etc/postfix/main.cf:
virtual_alias_maps = hash:/local/etc/postfix/virtual-for-root
/local/etc/postfix/virtual-for-root:
r...@dayjob.org collector-u...@collector-host.dayjob.org
Run "postmap hash:/local/etc/postfix/virtual-for-root" after
editing the file.
Instead of a hash: map you could use a networked table such as *SQL
or LDAP.
