You can always use an intermediate spam filter on an intermediate machine.
You first need to set up a linux/unix box with spam assasin on it as you want. Then you need to set the system up to deliver to the exchange server. Then you want to set the MX records for the domain of the exchange system to point at the linux/unix box. This is how we seperate the FrontEnd mail server from the BackEnd mail servers. The front end has the RBL code in it, and spam assassin and the Milter rules. You don't use procmail, because you are not delivering to a mail box. You use the initial spam filtering tools. If there are things in procmail, which you can't write in sendmail, then you can force it to process the messages. But almost everything that I would put into procmail is better put into the sendmail rules on the front end box.
