As a matter of fact, I have been considering switching MTAs for quite a while now because of this. Other MTAs seem to have much more powerful and nicer filter interfaces nowadays. :-(

Yes, Sendmail's libmilter in particular, see http://www.sendmail.org/doc/sendmail-current/libmilter/docs/

I wouldn't call Sendmail's interface "nicer". More powerful, yes, but considerably more complex. As far as I know, it's also specific to SMTP, whereas Courier's API works with all mail sources. Courier could mostly emulate milter, and you'd get a few benefits -- callbacks on MAIL FROM and RCPT TO, which would mostly help greylisting, and also the ability to modify messages directly. However, I doubt that the code complexity would justify the marginal operational advantages of the interface.
