The same that prevents outgoing emails from any IP from being checked
for spam. Rulesets. Look for "spam checks = " and implement a ruleset.
You *may* want to hold off on *not* scanning messages sent from
127.0.0.1 if, for example, you host a webserver with forms. Some web
forms can be tampered with in order to make them send out spam. Unless
you've taken good care not to allow MIME injection within your web
forms, you could be vulnerable
Good luck with that in any case.
