I believe there are some services that will act as MX relays for
a domain and pre-filter what you actually receive. If you have
access to a site with lower cost internet connections you could
build the relay yourself.

If you are going to start spamassassin for each message, it won't make
much difference. I wonder how hard it would be to modify qpsmtpd to
run as a daemon and emulate sendmail's milter interface so it could chat
with a concurrently-running MimeDefang which already does all the other
things you might want?
