Perhaps something along the lines of:

RewriteMap	tolower		int:tolower

RewriteCond ${lowercase:%{HTTP_HOST}}	=www.aasite.com
RewriteRule /(pf.*)$	http://www.AAsite.info/AAforums/$1 [L,R]

RewriteCond ${lowercase:%{HTTP_HOST}}	=www.bbsite.com
RewriteRule /(pf.*)$	http://www.AAsite.info/BBforums/$1 [L,R]

Note that if you miss off the http://... prefix, but include [R], then you
will keep the hostname the same in the redirected URL, if that's more useful
for you.
