No, because Clam can't be run until after the message data has been
received. It would have to be a delay happening before the DATA ACL.
If pipelining is not in effect, it pretty much has to be the
acl_smtp_predata ACL.
But if pipelining *is* in effect (as it is by default), it could be
any ACL after HELO and before DATA.
One thing I found as an issue with logging when introducing
intentional delays: the log line produced by the stanza that includes
delay= is generated (and timestamped) *after* the delay completes. I
assume the same would be true for a stanza that just takes a long
time to complete.
In my case, I wanted to see a "blah blah, delaying..." log line at
the start of the interval, so I used an extra warn stanza with the
same conditions as the following delaying stanza just to generate the
log line.
