The solution I have used is MIMESweeper which is a scaleable solution if
you have high volume e-mail, the only thing is you will have to purchase
a 3rd party virus scanner, for this I have used F-Secure.

The rule base is very flexible and it supports header scanning, reverse
DNS lookup and URL scanning against lists like SURBL.

We have had a lot of success with this product.

I've been very happy with PureMessage from Sophos 
(www.sophos.com). While not free, it will happily run on 
Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, HP-UX and AIX (on RISC).

It will do both anti-spam and anti-virus. Success rate 
for me has been 98% over a 6-month period.
