For it to label them unscanned, the virus scanners will never be called. 
Just to confirm, you are getting
X-MailScanner: Unscanned
headers in your mail?

I haven't ever seen this before, and am at a bit of a loss to know why.

Can you check that the inoculan wrapper works?
         cd /tmp
         /usr/lib/MailScanner/inoculan-wrapper -nex -rev .
(don't forget the "." on the end of that).
