I would add Mailpure's ANTI-AV filter to elinate these bounces.
I've also seen that F-Prot does a slightly better job of catching the corrupted 
variants than Mcafee.

Beginning using the banned extension option with Declude (see virus.cfg).
Then any attachment with a .SCR or whatever is blocked at the server level
and the user doesn't see it.  This is the way I have our server configured
concerning banned file extensions and banned file names:

Subject: [Declude.Virus] Getting hammered by [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi,

We're running Declude Virus Pro paired with McAfee NetShield v4.5 (the full
version, so we can have the Command Line Scanner) with the latest signature
files.  We're also running Symantec Corporate Edition v8.0 on the desktop
with the latest signature files.

Lately we've experienced several infections where the [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Virus has slipped past McAfee and landed in our Netscape v4.79 Inbox.  As
soon as somebody opens their Inbox, Symantec detects the virus and
quarantines the whole Inbox (obviously including all the other non-infected
emails)!

I realize this is more likely a failure of McAfee and not Declude, however
I'm wondering if Declude could possibly be not decoding the email properly
and presenting it to the McAfee Command Line Scanner in such a way as to
cause it to mis-detect the virus?  What's really strange is the email
appears to be one of those "friendly" informative bounces, attempting to
tell me I sent them a virus.  Firstly, I didn't and secondly - WTF would
somebody return a "you have a virus" message WITH THE ACTUAL VIRUS STILL
ATTACHED?!?

Here's a copy of one of the infected emails (sans the actual virus) as it
looks when viewed from the Inbox using NotePad:
