Mailscanner is a very good product, and much better at content control 
than amavis-new or anything else that I have seen.  Postfix and 
MailScanner have been working fine for me at a few installations, never 
used it with Exim, but since the guys who write Exim are running 
MailScanner themselves, it be a fair guess that it works too :)

MailScanner with Postfix works, almost, out of the box now. Lesser work 
involed in getting it going with Postfix than with Sendmail. I know 
Julian is testing on EL3/4. And there are quite a few postfix and 
MailScanner users around ( definitely not as many as Sendmail and 
MailScanner users ).
