Me too....

I am only a home user, but I have found that bog-standard clamAV (updated with 
freshclam) has caught all but one of the greeting card scams:
        Subject: You've received a postcard from a Colleague!
        X-Virus-Status: Yes
        X-Virus-Report: Email.Phishing.RB-1223 FOUND 
        X-Virus-Checker-Version: clamassassin 1.2.4 with clamscan / ClamAV 
0.91.1/3848/Thu Aug  2 21:22:06 2007

I use clamav via procmail *before* SA and any positives identified by clamav 
get whisked off into a quarantine folder so I don't know whether SA would have 
caught them or not.

...just my £0.02...

Best Regards

AD
