Assuming that all the report files are in the same place (?) couldn't
Raymond's:

# Define the default language set used in the report files
# This can also be the filename of a ruleset.
language default = en

be followed by statements like

# Set where to find the HTML and text versions that will be added to the
# end of all clean messages, if "Sign Clean Messages" is set.
# These can also be the filenames of rulesets.
Inline HTML Signature = inline.sig.html
Inline Text Signature = inline.sig.txt

so that you're assembling the path to the message files rather than
trying some clever substitution? If you can't derive the location of the
reports tree then a statement for that might be needed?

Just a thought from someone who hasn't done much programming in a long
time! ;-)

Cheers,

Martin
