I'm sorry I wasnt clearer, this machine is only going to be used to scan
incoming mail, the mail will then be forwarded to the Production Mail
server, I read an article that this is not only feasible , but actually a
good practice, as spam and virus infected messsages wont take spacee in the
production server.
