I assume that you want your Postfix to receive mail for
r...@foo.example.com.
Are there any domains under example.com that you don't want to receive?
Are there any users that you don't want to receive?
If all you want is treat anything.example.com as example.com, use:
/etc/postfix/main.cf:
mydestination = localhost example.com pcre:/etc/postfix/mydestination.pcre
/etc/postfix/mydestination.pcre:
/\.example\.com$/ whatever
Where "whatever" may be any non-empty value.
By design, Postfix *internals* do not depend on DNS, so that Postfix
keeps working when the network is down.
