Delaying is enabled. My numbers are actually higher than stated becauce I 
forgot the secundary server. 

The main reason the number of infested mails going through is so high is 
because of spamlovers and sendAllSpam. 94% of the virusmails are actually 
caught as spam, but passed on to either spamlovers of to a sendAllSpam account. 
These mails are scanned by ClamAV and found clean though. There are also a 
number of noProcessing accounts that might contribute. In addition, the 
virusscanner located after ASSP is not just looking for virusses but also HTML 
threads, email exploits and trojans and ofcouse does a better job of 
decompressing files.

ClamAV signatures are by design not scanning for all kinds of virusses and 
threads so don't expect a comprehensive result. Here's a comprehensive test of 
ClamAV amoung others:
