Here's a slice of my postfix setup
(debian stable; postfix version 1.1.11-0.woody2):


$ tail -10 /etc/postfix/transport
# Use mail.bellsouth.net for mailing to domains
# that don't accept mail from dynamic IP addresses
rr.com          smtp:[mail.bellsouth.net]
.rr.com         smtp:[mail.bellsouth.net]
aol.com         smtp:[mail.bellsouth.net]
compuserve.com  smtp:[mail.bellsouth.net]

# After modifying this file, refresh the transport map with:
# cd /etc/postfix
# sudo postmap transport



Cheers
