Yes the DNS is a good idea..
However what will i achieve if i implement the following?
# Changes in /etc/postfix2/main.cf
sender_based_routing = yes
relay unix - - n - - smtp
-o fallback_relay=
smtp_act1 unix - - n - - smtp
-o smtp_sasl_password_maps=hash:/etc/postfix2/sasl_passwd_act1
smtp_act2 unix - - n - - smtp
-o smtp_sasl_password_maps=hash:/etc/postfix2/sasl_passwd_act2
smtp_act3 unix - - n - - smtp
-o smtp_sasl_password_maps=hash:/etc/postfix2/sasl_passwd_act3
smtp_act4 unix - - n - - smtp
-o smtp_sasl_password_maps=hash:/etc/postfix2/sasl_passwd_act4
#/etc/postfix2/sasl_passwd_act1
