Use the sender_canonical mapping:

    [/usr/local/etc/postfix] edwin at k7>grep sender_canonical main.cf
    sender_canonical_maps=btree:/usr/local/etc/postfix/sender_canonical

    [/usr/local/etc/postfix] edwin at k7>cat sender_canonical
    #
    # postmap btree:/usr/local/etc/postfix/sender_canonical
    #

    edwin           edwin at mavetju.org
    root            root at mavetju.org
