It maybe a lot easier to change the order of your MXes and let all mail
come in thro' the box that does the scanning, then use manualroute
routers to deliver the mail to the box where local deliveries are done.
An even more appealing method would be to "hide" local deliveries box
from the world because spammers will try to use it instead of the scanning
box.
Decide - 2 boxes, one the main incoming/outgoing SMTP server and the
other one just handles local deliveries..
