If you are planning to do spam+antivirus filtering, let me suggest you
Amavisd-new to act as a "glue" for all the added services.

Postfix calls Amavisd-new and Amavisd-new calls both, SA and ClamAV and
then reinjects the mail into Postfix.

IIRC, Postfix and Amavisd can be configured to perform both, inbound and
outbound filtering, if required.

pretty good set of directions on how to wire everything together

I think that these howtos filter only incoming emails [antispam&antivirus]
is it true? :O
Thank You!

What does "incoming" mean? From the point of view of the MTA (postfix) every
external mail is "incoming" (either incoming from the Internet or incoming
from your Intranet).

I only gave a fast look at the first tutorial you reference and it doesn't
seem to make any difference: everything incoming by port 25 will go through
the antispam system.
