I spent a good chunk of time trying to figure out what combination of
search strings would cough up the mod described above.  The closest that
I got was

This may be of help to you, depending on what way you'll be turning your
logs into reports.  Unfortunately, it doesn't solve my problem of wanting
to use the scanner as a variable name in mimedefang-filter (without having
to override the now perfectly usable fall-through version of
essage_contains_virus() included in mimedefang.pl.)

I'd love to be able to do this:

return action_bounce("Virus $VirusName found by $scanner - message from $RelayAddr rejected");

I'll keep looking.
