Well, you have to submit them first to the council, and they can only be

Hmmm.  You _may_ be able to use the userdb feature of 8.9.x to do this,
but I've never tried it.

This would be better handled by the MUA, I think (you're not receiving
email for dk@example.com, are you?).  See if it's possible to override the From:
