at a DNS level, you just set an MX record to the right mail server for each domain.

well, yes !
It just depends how the mail server is configured (mostly postfix and virtual domains, aliases)
It's like google is your friend.
- setup postfix
- virtual hosting with postfix
- postfix + dovecot

Googles mail servers are the destination for about 1 trillion billion different domains.
