I've now changed this using a regular expression table for the
transport, so that emails sent to ".extdomain.com" should be sent via
the externalmail.domain.com (the correct transport entry is print out
when queried via "postmap -q ... regexp:...").

Unfortunately the mailserver first rewrites the recipient address to
"foodomain.com" (skipping the .ext) and afterwards delivers it locally
(as correct for "foodomain.com"). So my question is if it's possible to
"mark" a message when the recipient address is rewritten so that I
afterwards can determine whether to sent it locally or to forward it to
my external mail gateway?

Any solutions for the described scenario?

Thanks.

Best regards
