Postfix has:
http://www.postfix.org/SOHO_README.html#client_sasl_sender
which selects a per-sender next-hop address, when the recipient is remote
(delivered via SMTP).
Choosing per-sender transports has no reasonable semantics when some
recipients are local and some remote. This feature is not offered.

If you turn your submission script into a local SMTP service, or deploy
a Postfix smtpd(8) on an alternate port with content_filter set to your
script, you can cause mail to remote recipients and the appropriate sender
address to flow through your script.
