if I understood the docs a /selfcheck- will implicitly set /scanmem- and that /scanboot and scanmbr are not necessary since we're scanning explicit files. Do you agree or am I wrong in my assumptions?

I agree, but added those parameters anyway just to be safe [:)]
I must add that I don't use any batch file: the command line is entered "as is" into the "commandline" field of the "Edit policy task" window. In this way Mercury launches a NOD32 instance and examines its return code straight ahead, with no need to fire an additional (and useless) command shell.

What results did you get from testing with various eicar packages?

I actually didn't spend much time in testing this way. I just set it up and did a few basic checks once, then performed a little tuning from time to time. This setup has been working flawlessly here for a couple of years now, proving to be able to catch every malware that tried sneaking into my system via e-mail.
Best regards,
