This sounds like a mail server issue and not DNS specifically (since you 
said "from").

As an example, with postfix, you could use sender_dependent_relayhost_maps 
to define a database that maps sender domains to desired mail exchangers 
to use.

(Also with postfix, the transport database can do mapping to override MX 
lookups and choose transport type, like smtp, and also port numbers to 
use.)
