As I said this is set to no;
however, when I did a tail on /etc/mail/acess I got:

66.220.2.220    550 Persistent Virus Source
212.122.114.249 550 Persistent Virus Source
85.68.131.183   550 Persistent Virus Source
69.11.213.106   550 Persistent Virus Source
66.201.40.102   550 Persistent Virus Source
85.2.209.213    550 Persistent Virus Source
83.112.32.94    550 Persistent Virus Source
200.62.150.49   550 We do not accept junk mail
89.24.82.141    550 We do not accept junk mail  

All that has changed recently is

clamd from 0.88.7 to 0.90.2
spamd from 3.1.X to 3.2.0

and 

MailScanner 4.58.9 to 4.59.4-2 just this weekend.

I would like to turn off the 550 We do not accept junk mail
feature as I would term it to be buggy, however the
Presistent Virus Source can stay for now; get rid of the fraud/Virus
mail thank you.
