"Deliver in Background = yes" makes no sense with "queue" delivery mode, as
there's nothing to run in the background in that case. So that change alone
won't help you. Try "Delivery Method = batch" and "Deliver in Background =
yes".

Your other alternative is to implement a subject-line trap in your MTA to
block this particular virus, switch "Scan All Messages" to no and think
about the setup some more.
