I already read this... is this true Julian?... I think I'm using it
and it works... at least in 4.29.7... did this change?

I have domains for which I do incoming virus checking and domains for
which I don't... I have a ruleset for that and
Virus Scanning = %rules-dir%/virus.check.rules
in MailScanner.conf... and I'd swear it is working... only caveat is
that if a message is addressed to 2 users in different domains, one
domain is configured for 'yes' and the other for the default 'no' in
the ruleset, then it'd be scanned for both... I can live with that.
