I have just released beta version 4.34.5.
This includes the Plugin Custom Spam Scanner facility which some of you 
have been requesting for a while.

See the comments in MailScanner.conf and 
/usr/lib/MailScanner/MailScanner/CustomFunctions/GenericSpamScanner.pm 
for more details.

But basically you get a function called with the basic envelope details 
about the message, and the contents of the message headers and body. 
Your function returns a score for the message which is added to the 
SpamAssassin score for the message, and a text report which is added to 
the SpamCheck header.

You can easily turn that into a call to an external program to process 
this information and produce a result. Sample code is provided to do this.

Let me know how you get on.
