We use Vexira MailArmor for Linux Mail Servers on our Red Hat 9 mail
servers, set up as a sendmail milter.  Information is at:

  http://www.centralcommand.com/

They have free trials.  I don't know if they have free non-commercial use.
The software is quite inexpensive, though.  A two-year mail server license
for one mail domain is US$250.00.  That provides updates to both the
scanning engine and the virus database.  I believe that the virus database
updates continue even if the license lapses.
