I can't comment on AV but for our company spam filter I use ASSP:

http://assp.sourceforge.net/

It's an SMTP proxy so you can use it with whatever mail server you like (we 
have Exchange 5.5 I'm sorry to say).  Setting up is non-trivial - but then 
again it's not brain surgery either - but once it's all set up you rarely 
need to touch it.  It seems quite accurate too (one false positive in about 8 
months).  Plus you get a great snake:

Cheers,

James.
