Have you done a "service MailScanner reload" after putting the ruleset 
file in place? And you put your rules in 
/etc/MailScanner/rules/my_virus_scanning.rules ?
Otherwise, it should work. Personally I would advise changing the 2nd 
line to
Fromorto: default yes
but that shouldn't make much difference.
