My solution is some simple regex patterns in the ACLs and system
filter for exim.  All I do is reject the mail that matches a
well-known virus.  A "full-blown" virus-scanning engine is far too
much overkill.  It's trivially easy to identify each new wave of
Microsloth worms and add a new regex for it.
