I use it... it works well with Network Associates "uvscan". This is on a
production system handling around 100MB (2000 messages) per day. I have
a cron job to update the virus definitions file each night.
The only wrinkle I see is that exiscan tries to forward infected emails
to postmaster, but the forwarded messages often get caught by the system
filter which looks for .exe/.bat etc, so I get a double report. I could
probably fix that with a little work, but it's not a big problem.
