In Sendmail, you'd need to use the ldap_routing FEATURE, which can
route based on the entire e-mail address (not just the domain.)

In MIMEDefang, you'd have to hack something in filter_end that iterates
over @Recipients.  For any recipient that should be rerouted (based
on whatever criteria you like), you'd need to delete that recipient
(let's say foo at letu.edu) and add a new recipient (foo at canit.letu.edu).

You'd then have a mailertable entry routing canit.letu.edu to the CanIt
machine.  And the final piece of the puzzle is to convince your Exchange
server to accept foo at canit.letu.edu as a local recipient.

Regards,

David.
