Hi guys,

I just setup a Postfix + Amavis server a while back (after finally 
getting away from a Qmail installation I really didn't like).

I'm using virtual domains, and a few other fancy features (like database 
storage of those virtual domain mailboxes), and for the most part I like 
the install.

One small issue that's been bugging me is this:

I relay email for one other domain (I'm that one's backup MX and vice 
versa), but it appears that my amavis install is scanning every email 
that comes in for them before forwarding it to their domain.

That step is completely unnecessary (and possibly harmful due to 
whitelists, etc.) since that domain does it's own filtering.  There are 
also of course the issues of somewhat reduced performance on my side.

All that I want Postfix and/or Amavis to do is immediately forward email 
for this backup MX domain to that domain.

If searched around through several documents with very little success. 
I have already implemented an approach to stop scanning of locally 
generated email (defined by SASL authenticated users).  Would doing the 
same thing for relay_domains be done similarly?

I'm sure I've missed something fairly simple as I'm sure anyone who 
relays email as a backup MX would want the same behavior.

transport_maps wouldn't have anything to do with this, would it?
