Grab http://www.timj.co.uk/linux/bogus-virus-warnings.cf -- does a good job of catching virus warnings/bounces. I've had a couple of FPs on it, but not bad.

Haven't yet decided how to publish them, but they should be out by end of month. (Tim -- if you're reading this, please contact me -- my first attempts to email you have bounced.) Bob Menschel
