As Philip said, it is easy to use the embedded Perl interpreter. And
it is powerful, too.

I have implemented a SpamAssassin client as an embedded Perl routine.
It has been used for a while on my private box and has just been
put onto our office mailserver.

You can get the files from
http://hilluzination.de/~bengen/sa-exim-filter/

I have also implemented a Milter client which works in a similar way.
It has been in productive use for a while now, but I haven't released
it yet.It still needs some work.
