Hmm, so you possibly just need help to fix the virus scanning problems
and you are done (at least for now). Then you simply need to explain how
you are doing the virus scanning. If it's done globally for everyone,
it should be easy to fix. If it's done selectively, then there are also
LDAP guys on this list who can help.
What mechanism is used at your site for malware filtering? You can show
your Exim configuration after manging any sensitive info in it.

Are you saying that you don't have the patches that guy wrote or you
don't have the sources for Exim and Exiscan??

Again, look at that file, mask any passwords and let's have a look at
it.

Your system is not so critical or is it? ;-)
You need to weigh the nature of inconvenience (down time) that you will
cause the users in any case.
Anyway, if you really want to start afresh (and it's better for you),
then this document
http://www.timj.co.uk/linux/Exim-SpamAndVirusScanning.pdf
Is a good start.
I don't remember if it talks about setting up a MySQL server. Tim
Jackson might just do that. He's the type that writes!!! Anyway in
this one, you have to find your own way of
1. Installing your own MySQL server.
2. Configuring your Cyrus IMAP server to talk to MySQL server and Exim.
3. Migrating your users from LDAP to MySQL. Now that is what I dread;)
