I just checked the submitted sample sent to the list and ClamAV detects the virus as Worm.Sobig.C using the current DB. Some other scanners don't detect the virus since it's a broken sample.
The reason that ClamAV don't detect it with the option --mbox is that the mail is a NDR from "AOL Postmaster"? This means that the virus is located in the transcript of the original mail. To get ClamAV to detect the virus I had to extract the original mail and then extract the attactment. The newest ClamAV snapshot should be able to scan MIME formatted e-mails, but I've not tested this yet...
