server: per user MDA config

useres on my homeserver can login per ssh. I want them to be able to send an receive emails with for example mutt. Mutt requires an MDA, so in installed postfix. I configured postfix with gmail as relay host - that works so far. The problem now is, that every mail sent on my system are sent with the same sender address - my gmail-address.
What i want is, that every user on my system can use any console email-client (mutt for example) and send their mails with their own email-address as "sender". I know that i can configure postfix with per user relays "centrally"- but this is not what i want. Is it possible somehow to let the users configure this on their own - for example with a simple config file in there home directory? Probably mutt an postfix is not well suited for this scenario!?

thx,
Gernot

Re: server: per user MDA config

First note: you're not looking for an MDA, you're looking for an MTA.  MDAs only deliver mail locally; procmail is the canonical example.  You might want to consider nullmailer for your needs.
