mail generated locally doesn't get scanned

[Julian Field]

I assume you are running a fairly old version of sendmail. Upgrade to a
recent version and it will pump all locally-generated mail through
MailScanner as well.

The alternative is to configure your webmail system to talk SMTP to
localhost rather than invoking sendmail directly.
