Assuming you have "domain" in both /var/qmail/control/locals and
/var/qmail/control/rcpthosts, mail for valid users will be delivered to
their home directories (unless overridden with a
/var/qmail/users/assign entry).
You can then setup an ~alias/.qmail-default file which will catch any
other address. It's contents could be
| forward $[EMAIL PROTECTED]
and that will go to the MX record for "some.other.domain" OR you can
setup a /var/qmail/control/smtproutes entry
some.other.domain:some.specific.hostname
