For before queue, its best to be dealth wityh in MTA, before it gets to 
amavis, as we know with postfix its easy, sendmail is a bit of messing 
around because you need to make sure you own hosts can actually pass, 
but we cant suggest change in MTA's since they may have a sendmail tied 
backed (cyrus etc) and that would be unreasonable for something so 
minor.
