Unwanted interaction between spam and virus actions

[Spicer, Kevin]

We've recieved a few mimail viruses which have also been detected as spam, and have observed some strange behaviour...

(We are set up to deliver disinfected or cleaned virus emails and use the attachment spam action)
The subject gets changed to {Virus?}{Spam???}your account, and it appears the following happens...
The virus warning gets added to the message body, and the attachment replaced, but then it appears that the message with the warning gets moved into an attachment by the spam rules.  This has proven rather confusing for users.


The examples I've seen also put the spam warning in another attachemnt (AT126577.txt or similar) rather than in the body - but I suspect this has been caused by one of the other mail systems it passed through (the user in question is subject to a redirect to a partner company & so passes through further mail systems and a commercial virus scanner there).
