Interesting.  I may be able to move SA from maildrop to amavis if you can
get that working.  I don't need the ability to do spam rejection, but it
would be nice to have all the filters in one place.

How would you prevent looping?  If you submit a new message to sendmail, it
will come back through amavis.  That could create quite a nasty feedback
loop.

Take your time.  We all appreciate the work you put into this for us.
