Hi ,
        For Antivirus email gateways following tests can be done
http://www.gfi.com/emailsecuritytest/
http://www.webmail.us/testvirus

For compressed virus testing  visit - http://www.web-av.com/
Virus downloads - http://vx.netlux.org/vl.php


Open relay tests can be made on the SMTP server  and best way to test spam 
would be subscribe spam from the wild  for few mail ids and check for its 
effectiveness and also make notes of number of false positives.

My 2 cents

Hello,

I will evaluate a SMPT Gateway (it is an appliance), the objective of
this evaluation is to validate if it really works well in the next
criteria:

1.- Anti-Spam.
2.- Antivirus.
3.- WebMail Protection.

To do this, I have implemented a lab with the characteristics  of an
operational environment (Firewall - SMPT Gategay - MailServer - Work
stations)

Do you know any security methodology to test the previous criteria?,
What tools I can use?, Do you have any idea to test those
functionalities?

Thanks for your help.
