Sendmail is configured with the Lotus server as a smarthost, for
reasons related to the overall (ugly) setup of the firewall and Lotus
server, and to management paranoia^Wconcerns.

All mail that comes into this box goes to the Notes server,

I can't do anything about it now. Before I retired and came back as
a contract peon, I was #2 in the IT division and *still* couldn't do
anything about it; I tried. Now I have absolutely zero stroke.

So, within the "all mail inbound to this box will definitely go to the
Notes server and stay there" constraint, what can I do to preserve ham
and spam on the MailScanner box as something other than queuefiles?
