I understand the objective is to reject spam at SMTP time, except for
specific recipient(s). Is it possible to use the "fake reject" option, to
effectively reject the mail at SMTP time, but keep a copy? Add a "magic
header" to indicate this special circumstance. Then put something in the
system filter to catch this case, delivering it only to "spamlovers," and
/dev/null for any other recipients. Would this work? Just a thought.
