What are your ideas on having the mbox scanning code handle
attachments in-line rather than writing to/reading from the

Thanks,

Why scan mail when it's already delivered? We handle ~750k mails/day, 
using amavisd-new and clamd, coming in through load-balanced mail 
exchangers, which deliver mail to the mbox servers after content 
scanning. Runs like a charm, and, because of load balancing, it's easily 
extendible. Plus amavisd-new enables us to run spamassassin on mail for 
selected domains...
