True Spamassassin is not the right tool in stopping viruses.
But what I do is run anomy with spamassassin. I stop all windows
executable files from entering my sites. We have implemented the rule
the only way windows files will be allowed into our network is by way of
zip or gz file. It doesn't stop viruses but it will minimise the chances
of an executable file from entering any site I have administered.
Including this with amavisd or clamav you would have one decent mail
filtering system. :)
Remember nothing is 100%
