in mailertable? So that e-mail for a...@foo.bar is sent to server
kebab.foo.bar and mail for b...@foo.bar is sent to server bureq.foo.bar.

It is not supported so it can not be documented :-)
It requires very simple patch in cf/m4/proto.m4
ifdef(`_MAILER_TABLE_', `dnl
# not local -- try mailer table lookup
- R$* <@ $+ > $* $: < $2 > $1 < @ $2 > $3 extract host name
+ R$* <@ $+ > $* $: < $1 @ $2 > $1 < @ $2 > $3 extract user@host
R< $+ . > $* $: < $1 > $2 strip trailing dot
R< $+ > $* $: < $(mailertable $1 $) > $2 lookup user@host
dnl it is $~[ instead of $- to avoid matches on IPv6 addresses
R< $~[ : $* > $* $>MailerToTriple < $1 : $2 > $3 check -- resolved?
+ R< $* @ $+ > $* $: < $2 > $3 leave only host name
+ R< $+ > $* $: < $(mailertable $1 $) > $2 lookup host

R< $+ > $* $: $>Mailertable <$1> $2 try domain',

No. See cf/README: "Using Mailertables" for details.
I'm not an sendmail expert but i think you can put the adresses into
either the alias file or the virtusertable.
The virtusertable is probably the better solution but aliases does also.

Both of theese would rewrite recepient addresses in envelope. I need
something that have functionality of mailertable (that will affect
only mail routing without rewriteing addresses). I'll try out what
Andrzej sugessted or try writing rules for custom made map myself.

It was a long long time since I posted original question. Anyhow, the
project I needed this for was delayed, so I managed to test this patch
just recently. It seems to work very nicely. Is there any chance for
this patch to go into official sendmail distribution? It would add
another useful dimension to mailertable feature.

You can send your "petition" to send...@sendmail.org
[ http://www.sendmail.org/email-addresses.html ]
Sendmail 8.12.4 was released 2002/06/03 - most likely you will have to
wait a few months for 8.12.5.
