Very useful. I started using these signatures on this University's
mail servers on Monday. Appended below are the stats on the
incoming crap they stopped yesterday (Tuesday).

Total 308
The total incoming virus count for yesterday was 512[1]. So these
signatures account for some 60% of what was detected.

reducing incoming rubbish. These may well be preventing a lot
of viruses even reaching the scanning stage.
