This would indicate that clamav has rejected the message and
mimedefang bounce the message with the given results.  So,
in essence, it works?

The clamd log and the other logs (syslog/messages/debug) didn't
indicate any sort of core-dumping (*whew*) or errors.

I'm going to mark this up as a success until I get some
serious time to test it out.

Thanks for the help Jeremy!
