the behaviour of MailScanner, you described is correct. Lets figure out why:
- even if the mail has 100 recipients on your server it will arrive as
one single mail
- it is still one single mail when MailScanner checks it for viruses and
Spam
- only for the local delivery the mail will be "copied" if it has more
than on recipient.
Though, in my opinion it is impossible to have 2 or more different rules
applied to one mail with several recipients.

Roland
P.S. Sorry for my bad englisch
