Two servers, Sendmail and Postfix(kolab) on the same domain

[Alain Spineux]

Here are some tips

The easier is to configure sendmail the same way you did with postfix,
using transport, to set the next hop for some addresse (without
rewriting the address).

I found on the web :

"Not sure about the preference, but the postfix equivalent to mailertable
 is transport table."

Anyway if you still want to change postfix config

try a virtual_map table with

john@[ip_Postfix] john at domain2.com

but no sure it will works, because john@[ip_Postfix]  is a local
address and virtual table are used earlier in the process. Maybe
local_recipient_maps could work
