The bridgehead box(es) can be running IMail, IMGate, MS SMTP, qmail,
whatever. IMail can't do what IMGate can for anti-spam, but it can
perform this role very well (especially IMail 8).
Dedicating one box to each function is best practice:
Bastion host that can do envelope anti-spam

Bridgehead mail router

Mailbox servers
