I use set up both ClamAV and Vexira for my clients and I am very satisfied
with both (as are my clients). ClamAV, in my opinion, is a great piece of
software and could probably handle the scanning needs of many organizations.
Use Anomy with it and you'll get rid of many viruses before the message is
ever scanned. I don't think that you'll go wrong with either though.
