It's easy - just write a .procmailrc recipe for the users and dump it in their 
home directories.  Once the mail reaches procmail, MailScanner is well and 
truly finished with it.

I have a few users that wrote their own procmail recipes and the fact the mail 
is initially parsed by MailScanner in no way affects them being able to use 
procmail.

Not sure how this all fits with virtual users/domains; my procmail users are 
all "real".
