I just wanted to report that, despite what the spamass-milter mailing
list has to say, you can in fact hand spamass-milter an inet socket in
the config and it will happily listen on the network. That'll teach
me to not just try stuff.
Also, thanks to everyone who had suggestions on specific milters as
well as "glue" for multiple filters. I knew about many, but not all
of them, so it's given me lots to investigate (and in some cases
rediscover).

I've been reviewing the current landscape of anti-spam tools since I

what people are using is milters for spamassassin/spamc.
It seems like spamass-milter is the default go-to for most people, but
I'd really like one that can listen on an INET socket (and
spamass-milter doesn't as far as I can tell, but please correct me if
I'm wrong). Milter-spamc from SnertSoft looks promising, but it's not
free, and a bit more complicated. smtp-vilter also looks interesting,
but it does more than just SpamAssassin stuff, so might be overkill.
And I suspect there are a bunch more out there (though a lot of these
projects seem to have stalled or died over time).
What are your favorite (not spamass-milter) options for plugging
spamassassin into a milter?
Looking at the source for spamass-milter it looks like they're taking
the "-p socket" argument and passing it directly to smfi_setconn so
you should be able to give an INET socket address if you use the
correct syntax (see docs for smfi_setconn).
13 years ago I was doing a hunt similar to yours and came across
"miltrassassin" from digitalanswers.org. It was not quite what I
was looking for but closer than any of the others I found, so I took
it and started developing.
