Precisely. And many MailScanner users have all-in-one boxes at SME's 
that do web/mail/samba/etc. - and would thus benefit from securing their 
local webserver from being misused to send spam (specially if scanning 
from localhost is disabled). Can you recommend a good howto in order to 
use mod_security to avoid MIME injection?
