I saw similar possibilities with SMAP/SMAPd (TIS Firewall kit), but with the
version I used, er, about a year or more ago, you then lose lots of data such
as the sender IP address since it's reinjected by invocation of sendmail/exim
etc directly. It's all at:
http://www.tis.com/prodserv/fwtk/readme.html
I tried to improve it but when I looked at all the library source code, I had
nightmares, so gave up, found Exim and saw the light!

seems to have tapped a big market ("25M mailboxes licensed"), if you believe
everything you read on the 'net :-)
