root at ram1:~ # grep Return-Path /etc/sendmail.cf
H?P?Return-Path: <$g>

In clean messages, the Return-Path header seems to get removed. In the virus
warning msg, it turns up as
Return-Path: <?g>

When I am not using MailScanner, all incoming messages have a Return-Path
header. When using MailScanner, all scanned messages don't.
