If you are using Procmail (a good idea to use in tandem with SA anyway), then see:
http://www.spamless.us/pub/procmail/virussnag For a venerable, tried and true recipe for "snagging" viral emails. Even though the recipe(s) has/have been around awhile, they still seem to work even on the latest generation stuff. FWIW, I put an INCLUDERC statement in my procmailrc file pointing to this. I have also added a couple of viral signatures that have been batted around the procmail list. The result is that while I can see that HUNDREDS of viral emails have been splatting against the wall, I'm only getting about two dozen a day actually coming through, and SA has handled about half of those. The other half have been going to a "bulkmail" folder because of procmail recipes that won't allow mail not directly addressed to me to get through at all. I've had exactly ONE of these emails get through after all that--and NAV got it at the workstation. William L. Polhemus, Jr. P.E.
