Yes, you can either duplicate your user list to the external server
(perhaps using something like LDAP), or (even simpler), just enable SMTP
callouts for recipient verification. Something like this I think (off the
top of my head so syntax may be wrong):
verify = recipient/callout=15s/callout_defer_ok
Then, when your "outside" server gets a RCPT TO:, it will "call forward"
to the inside server and see if that recipient is accepted. If it is, it
will accept, if not reject. It works brilliantly.
