Consider greylisting, amavisd, SpamAssassin, and a virus scanner of your choice. Greylisting needs postfix as your MTA at the moment, but is extremely effective for very few resources. Perl-based scripts like amavisd and SA are a lot more resource-intensive, perhaps dspam or other tools might also be worth looking at if your mail volume is high.... -- -Chuck
