James, 

Thanks for the reply. I was not planing on double scanning, the BCC idea is basically 
the same, though I would be doing it vial the /etc/aliases mapping to make it 
transparent. I am running Sendmail as the MTA. 

The real question is how do to the spam check, either during or after the messages hit 
the PDA mailbox. That is where the script or other appropriate tool would come in. 
Advice on such a tool would be appreciated. 

I've never personally used sendmail, so I can't be of much assistance. I 
would check with the guys on the sendmail list to see if this is doable. 
Another such idea is to go through the directory for the mail box and 
delete (rm) any mails which have X-Spam-Staus: Yes (or however you do 
your headers) This can be done with a shell script. Tho, this has the 
problem of being fired at intervals opposed to when the MTA delivers the 
mail.
