This would work fine with ONE mail server. Unfortunately right now my setup is
more complicated. Second machine is now primary MX and it forwards mails to
my old (primary) machine.

With old setup self = pass would work but not right now - now fake_virtual
will route each mail to mygw.pl because self = pass will never happen (and
mygw.pl will forward it back causing loop).

Any other ideas?

Maybe something like

fake_virtual:
driver = something
domains = lsearch:/etc/mail/virtuals
conditon = if MX for ${domain} will not resolve to xx.yy.0.0/24 or
qq.zz.0.0/24

(assume that xx.yy.0.0/24 and qq.zz.0.0/24 are my IP addresses)
