Before I answer, I should explain something. It's not entirely a matter of
inter/intra-domain. It's also a matter of tcprules.
Squirrelmail (in the stock configuration) is sent via localhost (127.0.0.1).
The tcp.smtp rules have RELAYHOST set for localhost, so SA is not invoked by
simscan. If you do not set RELAYHOST for 127.0.0.1 in
/etc/tcprules.d/tcp.smtp, the messages coming through localhost will be
scanned. What I don't know is if SM authenticates when sending external
email or not. If not, that would be a problem. If it does, then you could
simply remove RELAYHOST from the 127.0.0 entry in tcp.smtp (and regenerate
the cdb), and you should be good to go.
BL, I'm not positive what would happen. Try removing RELAYHOST from tcp.smtp
and see what it does. ;)
