I'm not familiar with qsheff, so I hadn't given any thought to trying to 
replace it.  Personally, I use qmail-scanner 
(qmail-scanner.sourceforge.net).

I've occasionally thought about providing hooks to integrate content 
scanners but my TODO list has a lot of bigger items on it right now. 
This might be a neat feature if I ever finally extend spamdyke into a 
daemonized SMTP proxy -- it would let Exchange administrators use 
SpamAssassin, for example.  I'll keep it in mind.
