The whole point of ETRN in our case is we are a backup MX for a customer 
who runs their own mail server. They dont care one whit about mailscanner, 
and in fact do not want mailscanner processing it. They run their own 
filtering software on their own mailserver. We are a backup MX for their 
mailserver since they are in a remote location with poor satellite 
connectivity which often goes down.

Can we please have ETRN an option?
