Maybe I'm missing something, but if you are using courier's filter
mechanism as the "hook" for virus scanning (rather than maildrop or some
other delivery agent), then any of your users who relay their mail
through your courier server should have their mail checked by your virus
scanner when it arrives, unless you have exempted them.

I use Gordon Messmer's excellent Pythonfilter with clamav, I have
'esmtp,local' in my 'enablefiltering' file, and it blocks viruses
incoming from my users whether they connect through smtp to relay, or
use sqwebmail or anything else that runs the sendmail command.

Perhaps I misunderstand your definition of "outgoing".  In my mind, all
"outgoing" mail was "incoming" mail at some point when it was submitted
to courier.  By scanning everything then, we should stop any viruses
before they even arrive.  But if my logic is faulty and there a hole
here I'm not aware of, please let me know. :-)
