Yes: www.amavis.org

The german antivirus tool AntiVir is free for personal use (www.free-av.com)
and i am pretty sure they would sponsor a version for the list server if asked
(if linux-kernel would be considered commercial use).

But even better would be to also use the procmail sanitizer:
  ftp://ftp.rubyriver.com/pub/jhardin/antispam/procmail-security.html

It does not scan for virii but defangs attachments and html tags so that
braindamaged apps would not automatically execute the required interpreter
for the virus.
