I've had several setups for SPAM/Virus handling in qmail servers,
and the best solution so far was a combination of simscan + dspam + clamav. All the other qmail-queue replacements i've tried, including qpsmtpd, where just too expensive regarding system resources.
Note that qpsmtpd is more of a qmail-smtpd replacement than a qmail-queue replacement.
Most solutions involving perl will simply not do, at least for me, on account of perl overhead.
Well, a theory is that the resources saved by rejecting more spam will more than offset the resources used by the perl interpreter.
There are, of course, non-perl qmail-smtpd replacements, including my own :-) But qpsmtpd has a lot of momentum and you gain from that.
