Just wondering if anyone has a somewhat detailed instruction sheet for
getting TMDA to send all the mail it filters to an external server.
Currently, i use postfix as a stand alone box that filters mail before it
hits my sendmail box.  Is there anyway( i couldnt figure this out from the
FAQ's) to have TMDA forward the mail to the second mail server?

Here is how i believe TMDA works(using my current config):

-Mail arrives from internet and is filtered by postfix
-Postfix then forwards the mail to TMDA which sends verification requests
back thru the postfix to the original sender.
*here is where i am stuck, once postfix gets the verification back and TMDA
confirms, TMDA drops it to a mail directory?  If so, how can i get it to
connect to the sendmail server to deliver the mail instead?  I understand
that it cannot send it back thru postfix because postfix is setup to forward
to the TMDA(big circle if that happened).

If there is no way to get TMDA to send email out, could i use a second
instance of postfix with a different configuration, basically setup to
forward the domains email to the sendmail server, to forward the cleared
mail thru?

>From my understanding of the second instance of postfix, it is a completely
seperate system and with the configuration files setup like the current
postfix server( to forward email to the sendmail server) then i could tell
TMDA to drop the cleared messages to the spool/maildrop directory of the
second instance of postfix.  Does this make sense or am i just over
complicating this whole thing?

Thoughts?

Much thanks!

-Brent
