Hi,

	I'm trying to use scanmail to filter spam. If I understand it,
/mail/lib/qmail calls scanmail to filter spam and then runq .
But for incomming mail, smtpd calls upas/send, which uses /mail/lib/rewrite to
see what to do. Now, if my mailhost is plan9.escet.urjc.es, rewrite
translates plan9.escet.urjc.es!nemo to local!nemo, and the entry for
local!nemo tells upas/send to add the mail to /mail/box/nemo/mbox, without
using qmail at all.

So, should I use two different queues to put scanmail in the smtpd
received mail pipeline? (queue local mails using scanmail, the run the
queue to deliver all queued mails)

Or is there any obvious way to make upas/send filter the mail through
scanmail and then add the mails passing the filter to the user mail
box? 


thanks in advance
