A firewall only sees packets -- ports and IP addresses, and perhaps system statistics like who generated the packet. It doesn't genuinely understand the content of the packets, and won't know it was an email destined for x.

Can you show an example of the logs you get? And please explain in more detail what your system is and how your firewall and mail servers are configured.
