This is an administration nightmare! Use the same domain and addresses for
everything. _Much_ less hassle in the long run.
If (and only if) all mail going out to the internet, and that includes
mail from imp, is going through a central mail gateway, you can do a
canonical rewrite or masquerade on the gateway. And remember to masquerade
the envelopes as well.
