I have a question about that....is it documented anywhere how to get clamd integrated into postfix? all i could find was instructions on doing it via amavisd-new, so that's the road i've started down, but I'd prefer to do it natively via clamd, if possible.AFAIK this is not yet possible. Currently you need to define content_filter in postfix, which exchanges messages via any transport defined in master.cf. Candidates for that include the "pipe" and "smtp" transport (the various amavisd's use smtp), but there's nothing there where you can plug clam[d]scan directly.
Second thing is postfix doesn't yet support content filtering at smtp level (e.g. reject virii or spam directly via "550 xxxxx" SMTP reply), it spools every message to disk before handing it out to a defined content_filter. The upcoming Postfix 2.1 will feature smtp level scanning, but will still need some interface application.
I plan to write one, to get rid of amavisd-new in the first place. But my time is limited, so I can't promise any release date. I'll post an announcement here when it's ready, and hopefully it will also appear in clam's contrib/ directory then.
