Unfortunately I'm using SA with sendmail + spamass-milter.
I can't use common procmail filter because I have to forward messages to
M$ Exchange and store copy of message locally.
It's easy for me use sendmail aliases than ~/.procmailrc files for each
users.
Only one person don't want use SA. Of cause he is M$ sysadmin.
