I know I'm starting to go off-topic with this, but if you're looking for a
good anti-spam gateway appliance (just accepts incoming mail, filters it
for spam, sends it to the real mail server) I've had great luck with
postfix+spamassassin+spampd. Its much easier than the common amavis
solution, although not as flexible if you want to add additional scanning
(i.e. virus).

If you want more information, drop me a message off the mailing list and I
can help you out.

Josh Simoneau

Have a look at the SpamAssassin Wiki, I think there are some links.

Whatever, m0n0wall is designed for diskless and more or less stateless
(ie. 
when you reboot everything's gone) appliances with relatively low-end
hardware.  That would mean that SpamAssassin had to run crippled with
disabled learning facilities (Bayes etc.) and would probably bog down the
machine a lot.  Or to sum it up:  It won't work like m0n0 is designed and
if you created an anti-spam appliance, it wouldn't have too much in common
with m0n0 :)

Cheers,
Malte
