I broke down and installed ClamAV, after being deluged by hundreds of
Microsoft virus e-mails per day that SpamAssassin didn't catch. It
works great, catching all those viruses and keeping them out of my
inbox. (I'm not particularly worried about viruses themselves since I
read my e-mail using mutt on a UNIX system. But the sheer volume of
these messages floods my mailbox.)

Unfortunately, sometimes one of these virus e-mails passes through a
virus-stripping SMTP that removes the virused attachment, leaving the
rest of the (junk) message. These messages end up passing through the
ClamAV filter since they don't have viruses anymore!
