I seem to be getting close, mail is getting picked up and scanned by the MailScanner server, and it is getting routed to the Scalix server (192.168.1.3) but I am getting an error and the mail is returned
 
 (myserver.mydomain.ca edited to hide the real hostname)
 
 myserver.mydomain.ca [192.168.1.3] did not issue MAIL/EXPN/VRFY/ETRN during connection to MTA
 
 I tried adding the Mailscanner server into the accepted relay list but still the same message?

If the gateway server is running sendmail simply add the following into
the mailertable (usually in /etc/mail/mailertable ):
domain.tld  esmtp:[destination]

The square brackets are required
Destination can be an IP address or hostname

Sendmail will check the mailertable and see that it is set to accept
mail for the domain, mailscanner will filter it and send on the "clean"
mail to the destination
