If you can distinguish between both classes of recipient addresses
based on the recepient address (or its domain or subdomain),
then you can use the setting bypass_virus_checks to exempt
one class of recipients from virus checks, and let the rest
be checked.

Foe example:

  @bypass_virus_checks_acl = qw( .example.com .example.org );

would avoid virus checks for recipients in the above two
(presumably local) domains and their subdomains (the leading dot).
Everything else would be checked (unless virus checking is
disabled entirely).
