I'm interested in using clamav on fedora25 for data loss prevention ...
If I were going there, I wouldn't start from here. :) If you can code in Perl (admittedly not everyone's cup of tea), then you might find something like MIMEDefang is more flexible than hacking the ClamAV sources. There's also a milter called 'milter-regex' which I find very useful. I don't know how easy it would be for you to integrate that into your system, and its method takes a bit of getting used to, but it works well and is economical on resources.
