I'm using the "Amavis + McAfee" tandem in my SuSE Linux 6.4 SMTP server 
without problems. What's more, I've been using them since the first 
installation, when the server was a SuSE Linux 6.2, and now it's gone through 
a couple of updates.

I'd recommend this solution, as McAfee seems to be one of the best antivirus 
suites out there, according to the complete analysis a Spanish magazine made 
about the most popular antivirus software.

Best regards.
