I use Juno for my email list traffic for the same reason. I
never have to read an email before deleting it, as Juno gives
a list of message subjects with checkboxes upon starting. That
said, I also use the infamous cheap MS Outlook Express, but
only with Norton Internet Security & AntiVirus. I never even
had an opportunity to view the virus email as Norton popped-up
with a recommendation for quarantine. I think Norton is the
best anti-virus utility for home use.
