From the point of view of the MTA (postfix) every external mail is incoming (either incoming from the Internet or incoming from your Intranet). I only gave a fast look at the first tutorial you reference and it doesn't seem to make any difference: everything incoming by port 25 will go through the antispam system. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

If you are planning to do spam+antivirus filtering, let me suggest you Amavisd-new to act as a glue for all the added services. Postfix calls Amavisd-new and Amavisd-new calls both, SA and ClamAV and then reinjects the mail into Postfix. IIRC, Postfix and Amavisd can be configured to perform both, inbound and outbound filtering, if required.
