That is typical, if your MX record has both the IMGate and IMail servers
listed in it. Many spammers will intentionally send E-mail directly to a
backup MX record, hoping that it will bypass any scanning.
If you are using Declude JunkMail in a setup like this, you can use a line
"IPBYPASS 127.0.0.1" (replacing 127.0.0.1 with the IP address of your
IMGate box) so that Declude can still scan the E-mail if it comes in
directly to the IMail server. Declude Virus doesn't require any changes to
scan the E-mail.
