I just wanted to add this update.  Digging through the Scalix Admin
guide, it talks about the SMTP Relay and it's config file, andit
offers this pearl:

SMTPFILTER SMTPFILTER has only one state and that's TRUE. So, if you
add the following line:
           SMTPFILTER=TRUE
           to the ~/sys/smtpd.cfg file, it will cause the SMTP Relay
to hand the incoming message off to Sendmail. As a result, inbound
messages will be processed through any installed sendmail milters
(mail filters) such as SpamAssassin.

SO he hands it off, but I think he hands it off as saying 'this is
coming from the local box, 127.0.0.1'.  Anyway to test?  I'm at home
and will take this up tomorrow.  

Thanks to anyone who can offer suggestions!
