Wow!  My head is spinning!

I confess that I didn't "get it" at all when Wietse mentioned
transport maps, but I *think* I am just starting to get it now.

So, basically, I can do what I want to do without even introducing
the extra layer of complexity of -any- separate TCP proxy, yes?

Assuming so, this is getting easier and easier by the minute!

If all I really need to do is to put my own personalized version of
the one-liner you posted (above) into /etc/postfix/transport_maps,
then all I can say is "Thank you Postfix!!  Thank you Wietse!!"

I can't wait to try this.  I'm off now to do just that.  It'll take
me awhile.  I have to buy a fresh new VM, install an OS and Postfix
on it, set up dynamic DNS for my home machine, read up on how get my
SOHO router to do this fancy-schamncy port forwarding thing (for SMTP
traffic), configure and/or reconfigure two sets of Postfix .cf files,
and then reboot everything in sight and run some tests.

Wish me luck.
