If you get to specify the headers for the incoming message, do something like
add a router which (for trusted messages only) says something like
"route-data: ${h_X-Route-Via:}", then add something like "X-Route-Via:
smarthost.example.com" to a message to route it a specific way. Oh, and use
headers_remove to strip the header prior to delivery.
