Hrm.. Ok.. I had actually done some more thinking, and was considering
making the domain local, and setting up as follows..

DIRECTOR:

verify_mydomain:
driver = localuser
domains = mydomain.com
transport = smtp_special

TRANSPORT:

smtp_special:
driver = smtp
hosts = "mydomain.com"
hosts_override = true

Would this work? The spec says that the smtp transport does MX
processing on the hosts= values, as long as gethostbyname is false,
which is default
