IMS routing table.
1. If you set IMS routing xyz.com to <inbound> it will also route
users(at)anysub.xyz.com (this sounds like your scenario)
2.  if you set it to #xyz.com it will only route users(at)xyz.com.
3. If you want to accept mail for multiple domains, but have them
delivered internally to a single domain, route abc.com to xyz.com, then
user(at)abc.com will be delivered to user(at)xyz.com. Alternatively, you can
maintain secondary proxy addresses for users to duplicate this
behaviour.
