That would require seperate outbound transports that are selected
based on how the mail was read: smtp vs. /usr/bin/sendmail (the real
one).  I get the impression from exim and postfix docs that outbound
routing based on input method aren't possible (I may be wrong about
that).

Unless it's possible to run two separate instances -- one to relay
SMTP --> my_custom_sendmail_utility and one to hanlde outbound mail
generated locally standard_usr_bin_sendmail --> SMTP.

Well I have several msmtp "accounts" set up and run multiple mutt
configurations that use those different accounts for outbound mail.
