Hi Gleen, thanks for your help.

I understood what Silent Viruses and Still Delivery Silent Viruses means and
that is correct, the MailScanner can't delivery the Messages with virus, but
it should take the virus out and send a notification to the user saying "The
file example.xls was blocked as a virus, if you still want to receive that
message, please call the helpdesk"

reading the configs the option that allow this is:

# Do you want to deliver messages once they have been cleaned of any
# viruses?
# By making this a ruleset, you can re-create the "Deliver From Local"
# facility of previous versions.
Deliver Cleaned Messages = yes

but when a message with a virus arrives, the MailScanner sends out only the
Notification to the System administrator:
This is a piece of my mail.log
