Hahaha - I think my needs are nearer to yours than to 10K a day :-)

My setup is not perhaps as sophisticated as yours.  I have clamav
scanning daily, but not daemonised or inside my mail setup as such.  I
use bogofilter for my spam filtering - and do that within procmail,
which I find to be very efficient.  If you are interested, I
documented that on
