figured out my earlier dump question.
Virus scanning is done before spam filtering, but it will also check with
spamassassin after virus-scanning before it rejects it.
So I replaced this line in mimedefang-filter and it solved the problem.
this line:
if ($Features{"SpamAssassin"}){
with this:
if ($Features{"SpamAssassin"} && !($category eq "virus") && !($category eq
"quarantine")) {
If it's going to reject the mail because it contains a virus or an invalid
attachment, don't look and see if it is spam.
I have it set to save mail it rejects and spam, and dont' want to fill up
my mail spool saving sobig rejected virus's.
Speeds up message processing...
mimedefang kicks ass.
