PMDF from Innosoft does what you want and more. You can use it to
do a number of things:

user%decNode@myhost.domain   Explicit routing
user@DecNode.myhost.domain   Spoofed hostname resolved by gateway
user@myhost.domain           Alias to decNode::user

I personally use PMDF to route all of my mail to my Macintosh,
but also send a copy to my uucp node at home from 5PM to 6AM,
and all day Saturday and Sunday.

Support is excellent. A real value.
