[Mimedefang] Notice: Dropping support for RAV AntiVirus

Hi,

Just a note that MIMEDefang 2.34 FINAL will no longer have RAV antivirus
support.  There are two reasons for this:

1) RAV antivirus has a very restrictive license agreement that could
be interpreted as forbidding integration with software like MIMEDefang.

2) Microsoft has purchased the makers of RAV
(http://www.infoworld.com/article/03/06/10/HNmsantivirus_1.html) and
is unlikely to maintain the Linux/UNIX versions of RAV antivirus anyway.
