Look at the return_path generic transport option (Manual chapter 24).

How you actually set it to the right value for each customer is up to
you.

I have the following, which is probably too simplistic for your case:


######################################################################
#                      TRANSPORTS CONFIGURATION                      #
######################################################################
#                       ORDER DOES NOT MATTER                        #
#     Only one appropriate transport is called for each delivery.    #
######################################################################


# A transport is used only when referenced from a router that
successfully
# handles an address.

begin transports


# This transport is used for delivering messages over SMTP connections.

remote_smtp:
driver = smtp
return_path = ${lookup{${sender_address_local_part}}lsearch{/etc/email-addresses}{$value}fail}
