Second, the email will then be routed to an intended recipient be it
within our community or outside of our community.
Third, the envelop sender (MAIL FROM in SMTP protocol) is to be rewritten.
Is if this senario is possible?
Yes.
Would postfix on the new system do the address re-writes or would
Dovecot do it?
postfix, because this is a service of a MTA.
Postfix needs SASL to authentificate users, then an user DB to get the
user information (aka mail address) from.
What would store the information necessary for the reply routing?
I don't understand this.
You have to configure postfix, to replace header information. IMHO Postfix
should not care about whether this is "reply" information or anything
else.
What would happen in one internal address to many external address
situations?
You meddle with sender information in all situations (VIP -> internal,
VIP -> external), so no problem.
If the project was simplified by removing the ability to reply to an email;
so it was only a way to route external to external with rewrite is is then
possible?
It makes no difference, per RFC nobody has the right to send mails
"without the ability to reply on" except for DSNs. ;-)
I cannot help you with your postfix configuration, because I don't use it.
