virtual domains, sendmail and catch all addresses

Hi,

I have looked through the FAQ, and the archive and was unable to find a 
reference / answer to my issue. I think it may be more of a sendmail 
question, so my apologies if this is the wrong place to ask.

I have configured sendmail and imapd as recommend in the configuring 
virtual domains page at 
http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/download/imapd/install-virtdomains.html

This means that I have used the mailertable in sendmail to make sure 
that sendmail does not remove the domain name.

Everything works great, and just as you would expect it to. I have some 
aliases in the sendmail aliases file, and they work fine as well.

However I now need to add another domain and I want to set up a few 
specific email addresses for delivery and a catch all account on this 
domain to, so no email is bounced with user unknown, it just gets added 
to a specific account. I can not figure out how to do this though. 
Normally with sedmail you would use the virtusers table, but I can't 
see how to map all unknown email to the account unknown at domain. 
Obviously if I use :-

@domain    unknwon at domain

its a recursive map and so fails.

I would be most grateful if anybody know how to do this.

Regards

Ben
