McAfee Webshield SMTP makes half of the spam filtering options of Imail useless because Imail receives ALL messages from McAfee (127.0.0.1), therefore Imail can not do any filtering based on any handshake related info.

If you insist on using McAfee webshield SMTP, than you should use a 2nd Imail server "in front of" the current one just as a spam filtering gateway.

(This setup will also reduce the load on the main email server since virus filtering and spam filtering tasks are split among two CPUs.)

It sounds like Imail will again allow different ports to receive mail on so
other virus protection can be used like reading on ports 2525 and Macfee
reads DMZ Port 25 (Incoming Mail), Right? Macfee Webshield for SMTP used to
read Port 25 and send on port 2525 to Imail. Thus Imail would only receive
screened email like under Ver 8.01 - 8.03.
