[ale] [OT]Gentoo + qmail + SpamAssassin in front of Exchange

Let me first say that Exchange wasn't my choice (I inherited it), but it's
what's here, and I have to manage it.  With that said, I'm looking to implement
some type of SPAM filtering, and I've used qmail / SpamAssassin in the past with
much success.  What I'm hoping to do is to place the Gentoo box between my
firewall, and Exchange server, and have it filter the mail.  I've done this
before, but with a Red Hat box (had to stop because the RH box was a 200MHz box
with 32MB RAM that was also running some MySQL stuff, and SpamAssassin killed
it), and it worked very well.  I'm just curious to know if there are any
oddities or issues that I need to be aware of when doing this with Gentoo (I'm
using emerge to install qmail, qmail scanner, and spamassassin, and built it all
from source on the RH box).
