Default Internal mail routing with user adresses

Hello,
I have in my company some Domino servers and of course Lotus notes Users.
We want to reduce the number of Lotus CAL.
We have 2 MX frontend servers running postfix and they are routing the mails
to our Domino servers located in our LAN.

So what we want to do is to, add a new SMTP (postfix) /POP server under
Linux.

What I thought is that we could make a list of the Domino users so a
transport file could be made.
And the users wich are listed on the transport file would be routed to the
Domino server and those who are not in the list would be routed to the linux
server by default.

So we have in the tranport file something like this :
#----------
user1@mydomain.com smtp:[dominosIP]
user2@mydomain.com smtp:[dominosIP]
user3@mydomain.com smtp:[dominosIP]
....
mydomain.com smtp:[linuxIP]

#-----------

Is that correct ? Any suggestions?
Thanks you for your help !

Looks good to me.

Whichever server has the most ongoing user account changes
(domino or linux) could be specified as the default.

But if you have to maintain a list of valid users anyway for
local_recipient_maps blocking purposes, you could use that
very same table as an add'l transport map. (local_recipient_maps
only use the first field in a table, and ignores the 2nd).
