Which brings up another question, "To reject, or not to reject".
How do others handle virus-mails? Sending them into a blackhole,
rejecting them or saving them for later investigation?

Currently I'm rejecting mails that don't pass the virusscan or which
contain unwanted extensions (via exiscan), I know that this will most
probably turn into a bounce to someone, but I'm not a friend of
blackholing mails.
