This morning we have been getting drilled by spam/virus emails.

Are they spam, or viruses? Not the same thing.

40 so far.

I should be so lucky to see as few as 40/hour during any kind of outbreak

Been getting a lot of phone calls from across the company about these emails. At least my mailscanner boxes are stripping the files, and tagging it as spam, but what worries me, is the low scores these messages are receiving.

SpamAssassin is a spam scanner. It's official policy is to EXPLICITLY not care about virus emails. No effort is made to try to catch them, because doing so would dilute the scores of the spam ruleset. No effort is made to try to avoid tagging them either. They're just removed from the corpus and handled by the developers as if they don't exist.

Heh, I use the ClamAV plugin for SA and give it a hefty score. That way
I get the best of both worlds. Creative use of BLs also helps.
