Can you double check that you don't get the bad filename report please? It
adds the same type of report to the message as the filename checks.

To prove the point, the filename checks do this:
             MailScanner::Log::InfoLog("Filename Checks: %s (%s)",
                                       $logtext, $attach);
             $message->{namereports}{$safename} .= "$usertext ($safename)\n";
             $message->{nametypes}{$safename}   .= "f";
             $counter++;
             $message->{nameinfected}++;
while the filetype checks do this:
           MailScanner::Log::InfoLog("Filetype Checks: %s (%s)",
                                     $logtext, $attach);
           $message->{namereports}{$safename} .= "$usertext ($safename)\n";
           $message->{nametypes}{$safename}   .= "f";
           $counter++;
           $message->{nameinfected}++;

You may notice a slight similarity in the code...
