I know that Wanadoo have a decent solution to spam, they mark each message that looks like spam by adding ***SPAM*** at the beginning of the subject.

The user then decides what to do with it. Delete it straight away or downloaded it to check it, I've never had a false positive from them either. I also don't have to use SpamPal to scan emails from Wanadoo which saves time.

Personally I think having emails deleted on the server that contain viruses isn't a good thing, we should a least get a messages saying its happened or possibly get the email without the attachment, and at best, have the attachment cleaned if it is possible.
