The problem is a message can have multiple recipients.  If you're
using sa-exim, then you scan only once per message, even if the
message has 100 recipients.  You can use user preferences if you do
the scanning later (eg similar to the way my docs explain the
integration), but then you must scan once per recipient and you lose
the ability to reject the message and take no responsibility for
delivery.
