Well, the whole point of sieve, I believe, is to make it something that an admin would want to let arbitrary users modify on their own recognizance, and the ability to specify arbitrary programs to run would be just *asking*
to be hacked.

Wouldn't a decent, secure alternative to procmail be sieve+amavisd- new?

Except it's not really possible to make amavisd-new do per-user spam
filtering. And it's even more of a performance hog.

It is true that amavis-new does over-ride or otherwise seemingly discard some but not all of the individual user configuration options from SpamAssassin, but have you considered trying the following?

a) Postfix milter to run ClamAv, eh something like this (for Linux fans)

                http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/Postfix_with_clamav-milter

It is a bit dated, so double check the docs over at the Postfix site to take advantage of updates to the milter abilities in Postfix.


b) then use the regular Postfix <--> SpamAssassin <--> LDA (with sieve) setup (message routing via Postfix master.cf) so that individual users can set their own SA rules and vacation stuff.
