	hi,

	i think there is another way to do it.
	from the description of the scene i seems like the mailservers running
	on the same machine es the nfs server. if thats true, all users could 
	setup .promailrc files for their mail filtering, this rules would be
	accessed by the procmail programm which is started every time mail
	arrives at the mailserver, the mail is filtered, and saved in mbox 
	files residing the the users home directory, if this is to insecure for
	you because the user can define the location of the destination file for
	the procmail filter rules, you can setup a global .procmailrc

	regards
