How to get e-mail messages from Mail Scanner?

Hash: SHA1

Are you saving them in raw queue file format?\
If so, just drop them in the outgoing queue
/var/spool/mqueue on sendmail
/var/spool/postfix/incoming on postfix
Set the ownerships and permissions correctly, and they should just get 
delivered.
