MailScanner and the postfix hold queue

Hello,

Has anyone using postfix and MailScanner investigated using the
smtpd_data_restrictions postfix config parameter to hold incoming
e-mail? This would be used instead of placing the HOLD statement in
the header_checks config file.


smtpd_data_restrictions =
       permit_mynetworks
       check_client_access static:HOLD

The above would allow local mail from internal clients to bypass
MailScanner, I think. Anything
else would be put in the HOLD queue for MailScanner to scan.

Any thoughts on this?

Thanks,
Rod
