If you have a list of domains somewhere, use your scripting skills
to automatically build lists of virtual_alias_domains and
info@domain virtual mappings postfix can use.  You'll spend far less
time doing this than trying to get all the exceptions right with
wildcard mappings.

Wildcard domains are almost always a design mistake.  You might get
it sort-of-working with wildcard domains, but expect to get bit with
more unexpected behavior.
