Thanks for the info..I am more concerned when I reject an email of an attachment that is disallowed (ie EXE)..but you are right, for the most cases, they are junk anyway.
Has anyone gotten qfilter and qmail-scan to work together?? If so, any information or a point to a resource would be great.

Answer 1: 1a- short answer: No, it won't be delivered at all. 1b- longer answer: but it is kept in /var/spool/qmailscan/quarantine where the sysadmin can take a look at it Answer 2: Who cares ? Most common e-mail viruses nowadays are self-propagating shit that contains nothing worth reading. If some legitimate mail from a legitimate sender happens to contain a virus, the sender will be notified that his mail has been rejected, and can send it again -- without a virus -- should he want his message to be read...
