If you want the mail to go directly to the correct server you need to have a different domain name (@somethingelse.com). Since that's not an option, you have to have it sent to the GroupWise box and forwarded or pulled from there. Since POP3 is not an option, it needs to be pushed from GroupWise. Yes, GroupWise does this, but it's more time-consuming than scripting the creation of a bunch of .forward files. This is still not ideal. No RBL's will work with this method. You'll be stuck to email inspection filters. This is like taking candy from anyone and hoping you can see any bad stucck by holding up to the light... With RBL's it's more like not taking candy from known-criminals or accomplices. The only way around this, however, is to create a subdomain (requiring everyone know of the change and send mail to the correct address) run all email through a front-end system which applies the RBL filter to all mail, not just your test group. I can't speak to the effectiveness of other MILTERs, but the RBL's have been a very effective form of protection for my domains.
