As I remember the draft I read, a spamtest implementation can legally arrive at a conclusion without considering the body, so if the script's first rule is a spam test, the body need not be considered. (I agree that the body will almost always be considered.)
Anyway, I think the possibility of e.g. a future MAIL FROM test is reason enough to _permit_ the refusal to happen at any stage of the SMTP/LTMP process.
Frankly any system-wide script like that is better left to the SMTP implentation's own filtering/ruleset behaviour.
Sure, but that own filtering behaviour might just be sieve ;)
