[imp] Dynamic mailer config based on FROM and TO addresses

Hello,
I am hoping to use Horde/Imp (latest horde-webmail from PEAR) with
Apache James v3 (eternal beta) as IMAP server and local delivery
agent. The local mailstore will be receiving mail from a number of
domains/accounts, but it has no true FQDN of its own, so everything
gets fetched into a single @localhost IMAP mailbox. That IMAP login
is set to autologin in horde main config, and Imp uses it via
$servers['imap']['hordeauth'] = 'full'.
The James SMTP server *could* relay all outgoing mail for all these
domains, but in my testing this has garnered high spam scores, even
when clients are locally doing SMTP AUTH. I guess this is because of
our lack of an originating FQDN.
I'd therefore like to have Imp choose the SMTP server config
dynamically upon sending, based on both From: and To: addresses of the
outgoing message. The user would choose the From: address using a
list of Identities defined in global prefs. The
The things I need to know are:
1. Can this be implemented at all? (I reckon it can, but...)
2. Would I implement it by a routine in one of the conf files (I have
done it like this before, for turba config circa H4) or would I need
to use a Hook?
3. Where do I find the variables I need for
(a) The From: address or Identity, and
(b) the To: address?
Very grateful if anyone can steer me a little towards this goal.
