My preference has been stated. I would prefer SpamAssassin do the puzzle solving of message bodies, headers, URI lookups, message obfuscation, etc and let ClamAV do the signature matching of attachments.
SA uses many more resources than ClamAV. Clam is going to scan the msg anyway. The more dangerous email I can reject before it gets to SA, the better, IMO.
True, and a good point. However ClamAV would need to start using a learning or possibly a Bayesin system. Spam, unlike a virus attachment can and does change almost with every message. I would think a static signature would very difficult to maintain for every possible phishing message I could receive.
