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://www.postfix.org/POSTSCREEN_README.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.
