A possible answer is to put many MX records
on your DNS zone info, so that you will
have many receiving hosts as you like
(put equal preference to them all).  Put them
on different networks if you can.  Then configure
those MX hosts to forward mail to an
internal big server.

An issue with what you want to do is that
incoming mail doesn't deal with users, but
domains--I mean you can't control the
outside world to which mail server they want to
send mail to, apart from setting up DNS MX recods.   
If you want you can split email host
addresses,
for exapmle [EMAIL PROTECTED] for
heavy users and [EMAIL PROTECTED] for
light users.
