[5.203] EICAR Test viruses seem to bypass SMTP

Just recently purchased antivirus option for mail.
All enabled in the SMTP proxy so I went to a few EICAR test sites and bombarded myself with virii.

Seems most seem to get through!

Hello Simon Shaw,
   this e-mail contains eicar.com test file.
   Your anti-virus software should detect it.

All came through.
My ASL is set to WARN on virus detection.
Have updated antivirus list several times.

Help!
