If you are splitting a domain across multiple servers without a shared
access mail spool postfix needs to
1) Be aware of the list of valid users
2) known where to send it (local/non-local)
To get 2, a transport map with a SMTP target of the mailhost can be used
Postfix would then
1) perform LDAP/MySQL/other lookup to determine if domain is valid for
local accept
2) Lookup address to determine if exists
3) Accept message
4) check the transport map (transport map lookup returns mailhost and
search filter is mailhost != this systems mailhost value)
a) no transport map lookup return (when mailhost = <localmailhost>),
deliver local
b) transport map returns a targer (when mailhost != <localmailhost>),
deliver via smtp:<mailhost> target
When setup correctly this works much like the PROXY function in courier
POP/IMAP.
