well with minimal collateral damage.

I've actually kept Anomy in our filter, though under very limited circumstances:


If a virus is detected that is NOT a known mass-mailer (i.e. starts with "Worm.", ends with "@mm", or matches a small list of mass-mailers whose names don't fit the pattern), AND the message contains an HTML portion, then I run Anomy after quarantining the attachment. (If it *is* a mass-mailer, I just quarantine & discard the message.)

I'm not sure it's worth keeping around - I'm not sure it's even hit that function in ages, since there's no log directive associated with it - but it *does* avoid collateral damage.
