amavisd-new accepting e-mails from a remote machine

hi,

i've got 2 debian servers, one with postfix and the other
one with 
amavisd-new running.

I've read a lot of examples about how to set up amavisd-new
to filter 
emails that come from postfix.

The thing is that in amavisd.conf i have to put something
like this:

$forward_method = 'smtp:[*]:10025';

i mean...
if i write:

$forward_method = 'smtp:[192.168.1.10]:10025';

where 192.168.1.10 is the postfix's ip address... it works
fine.
But the idea is to have an amavis server that filters from
many 
different servers.

How can i tell amavis to send the filtered mail to the ip
address it 
came from?

Thank you.

 From amavisd.conf-sample:


# To make it possible for several hosts to share one content

checking daemon,
# the IP address and/or the port number in $forward_method
and 
$notify_method
# may be spacified as an asterisk. An asterisk in the 
colon-separated
# second field (host) will be replaced by the SMTP client
peer 
address,
# An asterisk in the third field (tcp port) will be replaced

by the incoming
# SMTP/LMTP session port number plus one. This obsoletes the

previously used
# less flexible configuration parameter
$relayhost_is_client. 
An example:
#   $forward_method = 'smtp';
$notify_method = 'smtp:10587';

look at the amavisd.conf-sample:

$forward_method = 'smtp';

should do if all postfixers listen on $port+1 (in your case,
$port=10024 
and $port+1=10025).
