This is not relaying, instead this is final delivery. I would
therefore suggest a final delivery address class. The virtual_mailbox
class would be most natural for this.
/etc/postfix/main.cf:
virtual_mailbox_domains = the list domains
virtual_transport = the lmtp transport
virtual_mailbox_maps = the list of users
You aren't using the Postfix virtual(8) delivery agent. Therefore
Postfix uses virtual_mailbox_maps only to look up the recipient,
and it doesn't matter what the lookup result looks like. That makes
virtual_mailbox_maps remarkably similar to relay_recipient_maps.
transport_maps are not needed for this (they would be needed for
destinations that require local(8) or pipe(8) features).
I think that virtual_mailbox_maps needs to be documented better,
for use cases like the one shown above.
