Although Grisoft (AVG) offers a mail server edition which costs real money - but significantly less than F-Prot - it is also capable of running in a command line mode. ProxyPlus uses it this way, for example. Many people run a single-user version of AVG, NOD or Avast with P+. You can even use the free version of AVG ;-) AVG is available on both Windows and Linux platforms. However, it's not a Perl module, it runs natively under the host OS Is this any help?
