If the virus check is more expensive than the

Does anyone have any thoughts about whether or not it seems like a good

If you reject messages with executable attachments first, let us know
whether the virus check catches anything at all.

(Someone once said programming is about generalizing the problem, not
about checking for hundreds of specific cases.)
