"PUNG" applies.....

"Probably, Usually, Normally, Generally".

A correspondent MTA will not know prior to starting delivery runs that 
<domain1>.<tld> and <domain2>.<tld> are hosted on the same virtual server IP, 
so 
will run separate deliveries for the 'To:', 'CC:', Bcc:' not on the same 
domains.

If QMAIL is involved, ISTR that it will try to make multiple, parallel 
connections - one for  for each message - anyway, so that one should be no 
problem. (well... Qmail might be (mis)taken for a Zombie on a dark night...)

'Prefixes' of course, might throw a spanner into the works....

But the OP's situation - where the entire <domain>.<tld> is to get the same 
treatment, should be amenable to any of several methods.
