No, it's not. I think jcap has the right idea.
An email comes into the system with message-id SDFGRTYDFERG which gets a
postfix queue id DFGH434. The email gets passed off to Amavis which does
its magic then reinserts it via a second instance postfix (which agains
shows its original message-id and a new queue-id. Postfix then delivers
it to procmail or the receiving MTA and shows the email as delivered (or
bounced or whatever).
With some Perl magic, I think you can trace the path of the email
through the email system. That's what I'm looking for.
