Carlo,

SA is not an MTA. If you want to re-direct messages, have a daemon
accept/forward mails on a particular port etc. it's really the job of a
program like qmail, postfix, sendmail asf. The things you want can be done,
but you have to tweak the underlying MTA, not SA.

So if you want to have SA in front of machine A, you'd need a completely
new system with Linux or some flavor of Unix incorporating an MTA. You
could also install SA on machine B, if it's not Exchange or something like
that.
