Very interesting...
 
I am getting ready to do the same thing for a Novell Groupwise server (which is irrelevant, as long as the MTA can talk SMTP). Your MX / FW combo is an interesting trick I had not thought of.
 
What do you think of the idea of using mailertable (in sendmail) instead? It seems to be designed for this purpose and avoids the "try highest MX and hit the firewall" phase.
 
My tests show that mail is scanned properly and then forwarded to the MTA of my choice, but I have to add the disclaimer that the system has not entered production yet.

        It's a trick I've employed for the past year with an NTMail server, and it 
works perfectly.
