Caveats with maildrop/xfilter:

a) xfilter can be a real cpu-hog and kill your server.
dcc-client and anomy piped though xfilter, concurrent incoming
connections and local delivery set both to 4 (only!) caused an
average load of >8 for some time on my old p200/scsi testbox
while processing ~1000 incoming bounces with 2..3k each.

b) the filter get executed _after_ the message has been received
and acknowledged. Bounce after accepting the message is the worst
one can do and will actually increase the spamload.
Filters at this stage may only add headers or deliver identified
spew to /dev/null. The same for filters in .courier-dotfiles.

The daemonized localfilter/perlfilter will be invoked before any
mail is accepted, but cant add/change headers on the fly (yet...)
