Spamassassin is available as a port, as are a number of other useful
bits such as amavisd, clamav and numerous others.

The Postfix web at <http://www.postfix.org> has an extensive
documentation collection (see eg the "UCE/Virus" part of
<http://www.postfix.org/docs.html>) to get you started.  

Once you have the content filtering up, you may want to look into
easing the load a bit by introducing greylisting via PF (packet
filter) plugin spamd, which can just as easily run on a separate
machine such as your gateway.  There are a few in-MTA options too, of
course.
