I have a piece of code [compiled in with the local_scan API] which depends
on MySQL, DSPAM and ClamAV, although currently it scans the entire mail
message [in mbox format], I can quiet easily adapt it to scan either the
whole message, headers only, or body only…

Not sure if that would be of any interest to you, or if the complications of
compiling local_scan and the extra ‘configurational’ [<- if that’s such a
word] changes are worth the overall out come… Maybe useful to those who are
starting a fresh and want virtual users in a MySQL database would find this
of some use ?
