Sorry Tony, that's not correct. Though the MILTER interface (Send_M_ail
f_ILTER) originally was an enhancement in Sendmail, meanwhile since quite
some time Postfix supports milter applications as well.

http://www.postfix.org/MILTER_README.html

So of course Postfix users can implement milter based solutions. And in
contrast to an AMaViS setup a milter based binding of ClamAV is
lightweight.
