Hi Seren, I am not sure exactly what a "submit host" is in SGE, but in SLURM any node with SLURM installed and with the matching configuration files can submit to your cluster. That would typically include compute nodes (where the parallel jobs run) and the nodes where users log in. If you want to prevent users from submitting jobs from some node(s), a job_submit plugin could be used for that purpose. See http://www.schedmd.com/slurmdocs/job_submit_plugins.html (the Lua version would be simplest to use).
The mail processing logic can be found in src/slurmctld/agent.c mail_job_info(). If you decide to work on this, I would suggest that you post ideas and any work you do to the mailing list so that it can be incorporated into the code for everyone to use.
