Thank you for clarifying it, I wasn't aware that amavsid-new can do that. However, at http://www.amavis.org/#faq-mta I read: The Postfix Before-Queue Content Filter setup, also known as smtpd_proxy setup, is not a supported or recommended setup with amavisd-new, which is not a transparent SMTP proxy by design. See caveats in README_FILES/SMTPD_PROXY_README Unfortunately, I couldn't find the referenced README in the sources. Can you tell us more in this regard? Thanks, -- mișu
