Yor just not understand the basic terms of my post. Or, maybe, my English so bad, that it is hard to understand what I
write. :-)

I never say "Do not use bayesian filters!".
I never say "Do not use antivirus!"

As about "intelligence":
Three of four check is not "intelligence behavior", but ~20 tests + greylisting + challengelisting + blacklisting +
whitelisting and using the MTA logic to manipulate of all of this is really intelligence.

Try to use a well-known construction, just above virus checking in Exim configuration:

acl_check_mime:

   warn    decode         = default
   drop    message        = Blacklisted file extension detected.
           condition      = ${if match{${lc:$mime_filename}}{\N(\.cpl|\.pif|\.bat|\.scr|\.lnk|\.com|\.hta)$\N}{1}{0}}


accept

You would be surprised, the volume of viruses will decrease about a half.
