Thank you to Kai Lanz [lanz@pangea.Stanford.EDU] and Andres Henckens
[andres.henckens@luc.ac.be] for their answers and help.

There are 2 ways to do that :

- To have sendmail receiving the e-mails and passing them to ISVW which
could transmit them to another sendmail for redistribution.

- To do this checks through spamassassin/procmail.

Regards

Daniel
