No one answered me and I happened to run across this plugin for SA http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/ClamAVPlugin It looks like what I thought I wanted already exists. Based on what I wrote above, and that I like the result of running sa + clamav via the two milters, does anyone have any caveats for me? I did read the discussion against at https://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=2408 and I also read the pros presented by the plugin itself. Once question I have: If I use the plugin and it fires, will it in fact contribute to the bayes and AWL tables ending up as I described above? Or is there a placement question of where the plugin should be invoked? Thanks all. :-) - -- Time flies like the wind. Fruit flies like a banana.
