I think I know the document you're referring to...

My problem is I don't like my MX (sitting in DMZ's), to connect back to
the Exchange server (private network) via IMAP.  

My ideal solution would be to find a way to push the e-mail to SA,
instead
of letting them reach back inside my network to pull them out.  


Possibly FTP or SCP to a specific folder on the mail exchangers, and a
cron job to check for anything, sa-learn it, and then rm it.
