One of the things I use on BQ and FreeBSD servers is a French milter called j-chkmail
http://j-chkmail.ensmp.fr/
It does anti-spam and calls ClamAV for you.
I replaced Mailscanner/Spamassassin/ClamAV with j-chkmail because the Perl
requirements were grinding the servers to a halt in RAM usage and processing delays.
j-chkmail is a C progam, extremely fast. You have to compile it yourself,
which is pretty easy if you are use to compiling stuff. It has a LOT of features which
can stop SPAM/viruses before they get accepted by the server, saving time and bandwidth.
Well worth a look at.
