Could try something along the lines of,

vms:
  driver = smartuser;
  new_address = "${if match {$localpart} {^\"VAULT::(.+)\") \
  		   {$1@$domain} fail}"

But i've not got time to test it ;-) Dunno if i'm escaping the "s
right.. best check that.  Also exim my through that address out as
illegal even beofre it hits the rules... 

Happy playing,
