No filter needed. Use 'unseen' to chain two routers:

This works:

The routers:

=====================

# Route 2_C normal remote DNS lookup
#
dnslookup:
driver = dnslookup
domains = ! +local_domains
transport = remote_smtp
ignore_target_hosts = 0.0.0.0 : 127.0.0.0/8
unseen

# ROUTE_2D REMOTE: archiving of outbound traffic.
#
sentarchiver:
driver = dnslookup
domains = ! +local_domains ### Note - this is optional...
transport = sent_archive_delivery
ignore_target_hosts = 0.0.0.0 : 127.0.0.0/8

=====================

The remote_smtp transport is default/'conventional.

The 'sent_archive_delivery' transport should store mail in either a
common-systemwide, common-source-domain-wide (virtual hosting?), or
by-destination-domain structure, depending on your environment and expected
manner of analysis/recovery.
