Yeah, somehow that got lost when I composed the message.

With a good hint from another person on the list (he just beat you to it }:-) I have found a way to have my cake and eat it too. See my reply to Jean Christophe for the exact code I use to make it work. Now that I have a complete and well-commented script (lots of features like bogonfiltering and blacklists) I guess I should make it publicly available so others can benefit from it too. I'll write a short HTML page explaining its installation/use and put it on the web. Thanks for helping me to iron out the last wrinkles. Grx HdV
