It all depends on things we don't know:
        1) What's the actual end goal of this?
        2) What's easier for you?

Since you mention amavisd and milter (and also your email domain, 
haha) I suppose your interest is in spam control/abatement.  If so,
start with postscreen, first:

http://rob0.nodns4.us/postscreen.html

You're unlikely to come up with anything on your own which is a 
better email content filter than SpamAssassin.  But there too, 
content filtering is less safe and accurate than pre-DATA checks.
