I think qmail is the most suitable mail server. I think and many others 
do, that it's the most secure and resource-saver mail server out there. 
And it's free, of course, you'll find it in the ports.

Qmail-scanner is a virus scanner for qmail, but I do not recommend it, 
concerning resources and security. The most lightweight filtering system 
for qmail which comes to my mind seems to be qmail-qfilter (a small C 
proggie), google for it and use it. See the sample scripts, one of them 
filters any executable attachment, like .vbs,.etc... Add .scr, .pif and 
.bat to them ;).

I use it and my 'new' qmail-queue file looks like this now (read the 
docs, it is a script, hackish):
---------------------------------
#!/bin/sh
exec /var/qmail/bin/qmail-qfilter /var/qmail/bin/filter1 -- 
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject -n
---------------------------------

Where filter1 is a script which filters mail using the header details.

PS: parse the headers carefully ;)
Alin.
