You could argue that most of the things that ASSP does are the 
responsibility of the MTA...  The problem is that the MTA doesn't do 
them - that's why I'm using ASSP.

The reason for this requirement is that a customer that uses our mail 
server has a mail archiving system and would like all it's staff's 
outbound emails to go via that (you might ask, as I did, why the same 
customer doesn't just use their own mail server but that's a whole other 
story).

This wouldn't be possible using IP tables because the destination mail 
server is dependent on the sender not the recipient - nothing specific 
in the TCP data.
