Mark is well aware of the benefits of milters. ;) In fact, I run clamav too. But clamav isn't SA. And I was arguing the case that, since SA needs to be done post-DATA, there's really not a whole lot of advantage you gain from bringing it to a milter (where you then have to emulate a post-SMTP environment to get it to work properly; which is what started this thread to begin with).
And you have failed to make your point. There are tons of disadvantages to running SA after you have accepted the message. Those are all implicit advantages to running SA before you accept the message. What possible detraction can you find?
