I haven't found a way, either. Most SMTP-based AV products don't have sufficient
anti-relaying tools.

You could have them set up their mail clients to use the port that IMail is listening
on. However, that would bypass the virus scanning.
The only option that I can think of to get both SMTP Authentication and virus scanning
is to dump WebShield for Declude. <G> Other suggestions from others are welcome
though, since I am a bit biased.

... and bleeding again, with wounds from spammers. Ouch.
You might want to consider having your remote users connect directly to IMail as an
intermediate solution, if you don't have a lot of them, as the risk of a small amount
of viruses going through may outweigh the cost of offering free E-mail services to
spammers.
