That's what I meant with "complex mail routing" :)

The problem with having two passes through postfix in the mail routing
chain is that you either run two separate postfix instances with
independent configurations or you have to figure out a robust way to
avoid loops.

It can be done, it's just more difficult :)

True. In my case that's not really a problem as we only have amavisd add
a "spam level" header to messages; actually deleting spam is left to the
clients, and most clients that support user-configurable spam policies
and rulesets can do some sort of address whitelisting.
