I forgot to mention I use amavisd-new because of these reasons.

To be more precise, when receiving mail from internet on port 25, I prefer amavisd-milter talking to amavisd so we can reject mail immediately, while clients from port 465/587 talk to amavisd-new using LMTP and amavisd-new injects mail back via LMTP on alternative port.

in some networks, even port 25 from LAN goes via LMTP to amavisd-new, and port 25 from the world is redirected onto other port with postscreen and milter.

I think it's best to wean users off the 20+year deprecated idea of using port 25 for submitting mail.

I should also add that if you want to avoid scanning of outgoing e-mail with spamass-milter, you can simply use its options "-I" that ignores all authenticated e-mail and "-i" that takes a list of networks from which mail is not scanned.

Also, I think it's a bad idea to give submitted mail a free pass. Very often this is what gets you listed on CBL / XBL, when MS Outlook malware is using valid credentials to spew.

But filtering needs differ for submission and MX mail. DNSBL checks on submission are useless. But URIBL content scanning is very effective.
