Are there any other proxy servers with such a feature available? 
I doubt that it is possible, but I'm not a specialist in Active 
Directory.

What might work, for instance, if "sales" was a child domain of parent
domain "company.com" and if clients authenticate with the domain 
target in user name like "sales.company.com\username" or 
"company.com\username", however even that depends on the domain
setup AFAIK.
