milter-greylist (I always get that backwards) handles itself--it's a 
very effective anti-spam measure with about zero maintenance.  See

clamav-milter includes freshclam, a daemon which automatically updates 
virus signatures.  The most maintenance I've done is to portupgrade them 
when new versions come out.
