First you check your company security guidelines. Here the guideline forbids .exe, .zip and a long list of file attachments. These are stripped as they arrive.

-> So to answer your question your first step is to find your company policy on email.

Use of Antivirus in Email Server

I do believe that there should be an antivirus software installed in email server as well which will assure that there should be no virus intrusion in the incoming and outgoing email through the server thus preventing an virus infection in other computer systems.
