Yes, MIMEDefang can do it using the functionality you described. No, it is not a good idea to do it here. The correct places are in the local aliases file, or in virtusertable within Sendmail. Both of these are dynamic files, which can be updated on the fly. On the other hand, your filter is static, and any changes require a restart of MIMEDefang unless you're prepared to wait until the multiplexor reaps old slaves and starts new ones. Also, most admins will expect redirects to be done by Sendmail, and so the transparency of your system is affected - important if you have multiple admins, or you leave.
