That's unlikely to work, because the MTA (Mail Transfer Agent e.g. Postfix) on the mail relay will probably see that it's configured to accept mail for that domain (which it has to be, to apply TMDA processing) and not even perform a DNS lookup. As outline in the TMDA documentation, the way to do this is have the TMDA server receive mail for domain.com, but then forward it to e.g. mail.domain.com, which is the final Domino/whatever server, which is configured to accept email to either domain.com (internal users injecting mail) or mail.domain.com (mail filtered via the TMDA server). If Domino really can't support that, then you're out of luck. I find that unlikely though. Anyway, your best avenue for support is Domino mailing lists. Alternatively, maybe you can play games in postfix and somehow tag email with some kind of filter and setup SMTP routing table to force the mail off your server. Either way, you'd be best consulting resources for Postfix/Domino/... rather than TMDA.
