Apply well-known solution, adjusting postmaster (implicitly @$myorigin)
as you see fit, to some local address that will align with SPF.

>From aliases(5):

   In addition, when an alias exists for owner-name, this will override
   the envelope sender address, so that delivery diagnostics are
   directed to owner-name, instead of the originator of the message (for
   details, see owner_request_special, expand_owner_alias and
   reset_owner_alias).  This is typically used to direct delivery
   errors to the maintainer of a mailing list, who is in a better
   position to deal with mailing list delivery problems than the
   originator of the undelivered mail.

But is also highly appropriate when forwarding a local user's mail to
a remote destination that is not a directly contracted mailbox provider
that accepts your mail for final delivery.
