One option is to create a Contact for the external ID in the Global Address List. That way you can pick up the external ID from the GAL. You can also do it from the workstation using Outlook rules. But this rule will become a client-only rule and will work only when the PC is on and Outlook is open.

If I go to Properties -> Exchange General -> Delivery Options it allows me to set up forwarding but ONLY to an internal account that is listed in the global address list.
