You need to find your remote_smtp transport and set the "interface"
parameter on it. Eg:
remote_smtp:
driver = smtp
interface = ${if SOMECONDITION{ip1}{ip2}}
If you start to get a lot more ips/domains, you might want to change the
conditional to be a file lookup.
You might want to look into the "helo_data" configuration option also.
