Using spam assassin with postfix is pretty easy -- what exact problem
are/were you having with it? I don't know why yo would need two
machines for doing it.

The one thing Postfix makes a little bit unpleasant is blocking things
during the SMTP dialog based on arbitrary content scanning, but even
that is quite doable.

Really what Postfix probably needs is some big excessively thick book
so people can buy it and feel comforted. :)
