I quote the canonical(5) man page:

       user address
              usersite is replaced by address when site is equal
              to $myorigin, when site is listed in $mydestina-
              tion, or when it is listed in $inet_interfaces.

              This form is useful for replacing login names by
              Firstname.Lastname.

I quote the canonical(5) man page:

       Normally, the file serves as input to the postmap(1) com-
       mand. The result, an indexed file in dbm or db format, is
       used for fast searching by the mail system.

Thus, sequence of entries in the file does not matter.

Under the conditions as quoted from the canonical(5) man page.
