The file's size is approximately 15 MB, which I consider large for an
email but still feasible, because the mail is only routed locally. The
destination is a mail-in database on a Lotus Domino server, so other
means of transport are not easily available in this case. I could use
scp to transfer the data and write an import agent on the Domino side,
but I'd rather rely on the existing mail connection.

I assume that by local injection you mean using sendmail? How would one
go about configuring a Postfix instance for local injection only?
