No... if it's set to 'esmtp', then all mail received by SMTP --
regardless of who sent it, or where it's going -- will be scanned. If
you change it to, or add 'local', then mail that's submitted by the
local system, via sendmail, will also be scanned.

Rob~ If you want to scan outgoing mail, then you need to use a
courierfilter to scan the mail.

Michael~ If you want to skip scanning messages that are generated by
your users, then your filter needs to contain that logic. Courier won't
do it for you. Pythonfilter provides a collection of "whitelist"
modules to do exactly that. Maybe you can get some ideas from them.
