I see mailscanner version 4.10-1 has been released details here
http://www.sng.ecs.soton.ac.uk/mailscanner/
It supports virus definitions for
Sophos, McAfee, Command, Kaspersky, Inoculate, Inoculan, Nod32, F-Secure,
F-Prot, Panda, RAV, AntiVir, Clam and Vscan.

I don't know the relevant charges for each of the definition subscription
but it might be worth doing some research.

The only problem is that it would require some kind person to make a pkg for
the whole thing if you don't want to install from source.

Paul.
