Any redirects/mailboxes you set up will work on username.f9.co.uk and username.force9.co.uk as well as any domains on your account. Simply go through the redirect process as normal and this should work for you.

Anything you have set up for prefixes on username.force9.co.uk will apply exactly the same way to any domains you have hosted.
If you have created mailboxes (or aliases/redirects) for bill and fred say, and then said blackhole everything else on your account, you will only receive emails for bill@mydomain.co.uk and fred@mydomain.co.uk, everything else will be blackholed.
I suggest you send yourself test emails to make sure it is all working as expected.
