MailScanner gateway system

Put the sendmail server on the Internet side with it's own public IP
address which your MX record will reference. Highly recommend using the
Linux/Unix Firewall software.

The sendmail server will forward messages to the existing SMTP IP
address after scanning for viruses and spam. The POP3 users will
continue using the existing IP address.

Do you have a VPN server? Your users could VPN into your network and
then directly use Exchange. That's what our users do.
