You can either
* try to patch SQLgrey to accept connections on an UDP port instead of
the default TCP :
- search for "my $server = bless {"
- 3 lines below, hardcode your desired UDP port like this :
- port = <yourport>,
proto = 'udp',
if it works, you'll have to maintain your own SQLgrey branch.
* or write a wrapper that will speak with your server with a protocol it
can understand and with the Postfix protocol with SQLgrey (more complex
but better as it means you can switch to whatever policy daemon you want
and won't have to maintain your own version of SQLgrey). For a simple
protocol description have a look at
http://www.postfix.org/SMTPD_POLICY_README.html.
You'll be on your own for this though, I can't test this as I don't have
access to your mail-server and am not inclined to spend time on
integration with other SMTP servers anyway.
