All e-mails will be scanned, and the results of the scan can affect the processing order. For example, if the Anti-Virus software detects a virus and it cannot repair the file, the file will be deleted, redirected, or bounced, depending on the user settings. In this case, the file will not be further processed for a list, forwarding, rules, or any other processing. If an infected message is cleaned, or does not have a virus, the processing order is not affected.
