Ideally, the same line would include a list of the sins committed by that email, similar to the nice
summary you get from Spam Assassin with "Log Spam = yes". In fact, it'd be nice to mimic that
format as well. Something along the lines of:
Message h84ETLA12220 from 205.169.164.67 (a at b.com) to c.com is infected, McAfee (W32/Sobig.f at MM)
Given that, I'd happily elimenate all of the other messages logged regarding the virus scanning
process except while debugging.
