Within data-centre sendmail is still doing some form of spam-prevention 
checking (not spamassassin) but DNS checks and such. We have found similar 
issues with email sending from app servers, and there are no plans to change 
this. (Ideally, we'd like to move to asynchronous email sending but there are 
bugs to fix before we can re-enable the default ZopeQueuedEmailRunner.) And 
that wouldn't really help with email sending from scripts.
