I strongly suggest that you do virus filtering on your internal mail hub,
to slow down viruses when they get into your network.

You don't have to train it. The standard ruleset is OK; the Bayesian
statistical filtering is just an optional enhancement.

We're using MailScanner to annotate email with a score, and the users
have a simple facility for setting their filtering threshold. However
that's because we can't impose a spam filtering policy. If you can you
probably should, perhaps at a conservative level while still allowing
users to set their own stricter filtering.
