I'm not sure if this is what you are after but...

If you want to use DNS for this then set up an appropriate zone file for
the virtualDom.com.  Then include a line like this:

virtualdom.com.  IN  MX  10 mail.realdom.com.

This will take mail for [EMAIL PROTECTED] and send it to your mail
server in the real domain.  This virtualdom.com zone is very tidy as
well.
