Mail hosts should not generate bounces in response to virus or worm
activity.

Since viruses should be rejected at SMTP time, I can't think of a
situation where Exim would accept an infected message, then fail to
deliver it and have to send a bounce.

Could you explain the context in which this problem surfaces?

Ciao,
