I am marking and passing malware e-mails to a special review account for
possible listing in URIBL Black (in their malware cluster).  Just
curious to know why amavisd would write all of the duplicate malware
headers to a single message:

X-Spam-Status: Yes, score=56 required=5
        tests=[AV:Email.Malware.Sanesecurity.07051800=7.5,  MY_TEST=3.5,
         AV:Email.Malware.Sanesecurity.07051800=7.5,
         AV:Email.Malware.Sanesecurity.07051800=7.5,
         AV:Email.Malware.Sanesecurity.07051800=7.5,
         AV:Email.Malware.Sanesecurity.07051800=7.5,
         AV:Email.Malware.Sanesecurity.07051800=7.5,
         AV:Email.Malware.Sanesecurity.07051800=7.5]


When I scan the same raw message file with clamdscan I only see one result:
=====
clamdscan /home/amavis/test.eml
/home/amavis/test.eml: Email.Malware.Sanesecurity.07051800 FOUND

----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------
Infected files: 1
Time: 0.310 sec (0 m 0 s)
=====

I also periodically see the same with phish e-mail, too:

X-Spam-Status: Yes, score=26 required=5
        tests=[AV:Phishing.Email.SSL-Spoof=7.5,  MY_TEST=3.5,
         AV:Phishing.Email.SSL-Spoof=7.5,  AV:Phishing.Email.SSL-Spoof=7.5]


And with clamdscan directly on the raw message file:
=====
clamdscan /home/amavis/test2.eml
/home/amavis/test2.eml: Phishing.Email.SSL-Spoof FOUND

----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------
Infected files: 1
Time: 0.084 sec (0 m 0 s)
=====

Again, it not a big deal, just more of a curiosity question.

Thanks,

Bill
