I would not recommend it.  It has been tried, shall we say, at some largish
ISPs.  Not spamassasin - but homegrown systems that performed back then just
like spamassasin does now.

Making snap decisions based on content is risky.  And spamassasin's default
criteria / scores have a rather interesting false positive rate.

It is excellent for tagging (not /dev/nulling, mind you) inbound spam.

For an outbound mailserver, you are better off with a bulk detector like
Vernon Schryver's DCC (http://www.rhyolite.com/dcc/)

Also remember that spamassassin is one of the better memory hogs out there.
