Do you mean that /etc/aliases has a bunch of "xyz: arnold" lines, or
that you have multiple domains or sub-domains mapped to a single domain?

 The former. When I communicate with some business or something, I create
a dedicated alias in /etc/aliases on my server (that's now both incoming
one, the MX, and outgoing one, and I want it to be only the incoming one)
and send email from it, so if I receive spam later, I know who's to blame
(and can easily remove an alias). I'd like to avoid having to create it
also on the outgoing server -- I'd like it to accept everything from my
domain.
 

That's what mine does, receives mail to defined-names-and-aliases@mydomain, and sends mail from *@mydomain, all I do is add an alias and run newaliases when necessary.
