You may have a look at AMaViS (A Mail Virus Scanner) at
http://dev.amavis.org/ or get the latest sources from our CVS server at
SourceForge (http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=6006)

AMaViS is free, but needs one or more commercial virus scanners for
Linux (see http://av-linux.w3.to/).

As someone asks for FreeBSD: AVP/BSD (www.avp.ru) and Sophos Sweep/BSD
(www.sophos.com) are two products, I'm aware of.
