you can do this in Postfix by defining transport maps. In my set-up, I  
have put these lines into /etc/postfix/transport:
	arcor.de smtp:smtp.tiscali.de
	t-online.de smtp:smtp.tiscali.de
	web.de smtp:smtp.tiscali.de

Whenever a mail goes out to one of these domains, it is relayed via my  
ISP (smtp.tiscali.de); all other mail is sent directly from my server.

After editing /etc/postfix/transport, you have to convert it into the  
internal table format by running
	postmap /etc/postfix/transport

Then tell postfix about this table by adding
	transport_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/transport
to /etc/postfix/main.cf, reload the config (or restart postfix), and  
you should be all set.

Hope that helped. Best regards,

Andreas
