I'm using SA being called by amavisd-new. Mind you, this is for a small setup
(with rather quite a bit of spam), so this setup may not be the most perfomance
efficient.
Just tell SA to add headers in all cases and you'll find out whether it's
working or not.

not sure - it's almost 2 AM here...i'm going to hit the sack as I have an
earlish start - i'll try to dig out the config from that mail server and send
it out, but i can't promise it'll happen tomorrow - DO ping me if i haven't
done it after the w/end.

I am not sure how to do it - we simply fwd as usual all the email, let our few
users to clean them up (and puts the blame of any false positives far away from
us too)

Dovecot IMAP. Postfix for SMTP. everything clear and TLS enabled.

just go over the man pages and postfix's site. the interaction with amavisd and
SA , and the flowing in and out of mails is where it gets interesting.
