you could check out www.gfi.com/emailsecuritytest/ though they only check your mail client/server not directly with a 
virus but for the ways a virus uses mail servers/clients to propagate.

Hello, 

can someone give me tips, how I can run a virus protection tests. 
This is this also interesting, if one must accomplish a virus 
audit. So far I examined only functionality with an EICAR 
test virus. I need however still procedures for the 
performance of a virus protection. I would examine also, 
which viruses the product (e.g. viruses, which are specified 
at http://www.wildlist.org/WildList/RTWL.htm) recognizes. 
Gives it in addition a kind collection of virus 
identifications (defused viruses) or have I to search the 
internet for some real viruses in the internet. Perhaps is 
there a finished virus collection, if so where? 

Yours sincerely 
Istvan
