Notify Virus Recipients in the same way as Spam Recipients are notified

Ok No Problem, hopefully it might become a feature in the future.

I have set Warning Is Attachment = no, though the
stored.virus.message.txt still appears as an attachment, but the
inline.warning.txt does appear inline. Will continue experimenting...

Regards
Andrew

Not possible at the moment, I'm afraid. You should be able to get the
virus
warning in the body of the message and not as an attachment, though. See
the "Warning Is Attachment" setting. It does depend on how carefully the
email application renders inline sections. Outlook gets it right, but
many
other apps don't.
