_are_ possible. I only run SA through milter and it happily uses my prefs
file and whatever is associated with it.

you can currently define which user's settings to use, when message has more
recipients.

I could not find which user's settings to use, when recipient does not exist
on host (e.g. mailing list or alias).

It would be nice if SA could just-re-score the message when delivering to
each recipient... (optionally also apply local blacklists, whitelists and
bayes)

the milter switch '-x' causes alias and virtuser table expansion :)
