Good point. There is never a reason to clean and deliver a message that was
infected with a virus. Once infected, throw it out. Besides, I bet that
99.99% of infected e-mails were sent by the virus itself and therefore have
no legit value.

 

Also, if your AV software does not allow you to ban certain virus
extensions, you need to reassess your AV software.

Lesson that I learnt - don't trust any antivirus product that does not strip
suspect files from e-mails. Have been using eScan since, without a single
infection. www.mwti.com <http://www.mwti.com/>  . Also they have a good
cleaning tool here ftp://ftp.microworldsystems.com/download/tools/mwav.exe
