The sane way to glue all the mail scanning steps you want together
so they run in real time during the smtp conversation is with
Mimedefang: http://www.mimedefang.org/.
It runs as a sendmail milter and lets you control your choice of
operations with clam, spamassassin, etc. with a small snippet of
perl. And it has a fairly active mail list for help.
