FW: Virus/worm detection missed

Hi,

I am new to the mail list. We have used Clamav for many years via MailScanner.

Today we have received 172 emails from various addresses and relays with subject line examples:

Subject: Your order N13340 for helicopter for the weekend
Subject: Your order N14776 for rotorcraft for the weekend
Subject: Your order N16400 for chopper for the weekend

The emails contain one of the two following virus/worms:

Virus name: "Trojan:JS/BlacoleRef.AS"
Worm name: "JS/Agent.PX.gen"
We have 5 MX servers - Linux running clamav version .97.4 (although clamd -V says 97.3).

The virus and worm were not caught by Clamav. Should I just submit the problem email bodies to clamav to review?
