Darn, apparently I missed it. However I have already asked if
postfix would be able to do it and got the response that I was
the first one needing it, *sigh*

It's called policy-based-routing and it is not brain-damaged.

Guess you've got a leased line to your university, though no
commercial traffic may pass. However, you've got an own business
where you need to write mails as well. Solution a) Get a modem,
use a shell login at your provider's, solution b) also get a
modem, but use dialup via uucp or ppp and dump & receive
commercial mails using that way.

Leased line commercially: DM 400/month
Leased line non-commercially: DM 100/month

$ 1 being something about DM 1.85
