There is exiscan (http://www.timj.co.uk/linux/exim.php), which is a similar 
idea to MD but much less flexible - it works entirely at the smtp level, so 
there's no concept of quarantine (which some might find a good thing), but 
even this requires patching the exim source code. To implement something like 
MD on exim you'd really have to rewrite portions of exim to accomodate it. I 
think you'd probably find it easier to support postfix.
