Mcafee to scan emails?
Mark,
As you will see, many people will recommend ClamAV BUT I have good luck
using McAfee because I am a corporate whore who is tired of explaining to
customers that Open Source is good.
However, I haven't found much issues with Beagle/Bagle, etc. since I
switched to using File::Archive that searches for bad_exts and blocks them.
If the defs don't get them, the zip scanning has been.
Instructions on how I installed McAfee:

Are you using the Archive::ZIp and the mimedefang filter changes that take
advantages of looking inside zips for nasty things?
Regards,
KAM
