What preferences do you need to store in SQL? If you are purely looking
at sql based whitelists / blacklists (and not SA preferences), here is
something:
http://filelister.linux-kernel.at/mod_perl?current=/tarballs/MailScanner

Also if you can wait, mailwatch 0.6 when released (mailwatch.sf.net) 
will support sql based whitelists / blacklists.
