Warning for bogus-virus-warning.cf Users

I've noticed lately that I haven't been receiving email from Julian.

Turns out the bogus-virus-warnings.cf ruleset has a rule specifically for a
from address containing MailScanner and it scores 3.5.

# grep VIRUS_WARNING62 *.cf
bogus-virus-warnings.cf:header VIRUS_WARNING62          From =~
/Antivirus|InterScan|MailScanner|virusscan|WebShield
SMTP|NortonAV|DrWeb-DAEMON|amavisd-new|virenscanner|GateLockX200|Filtermails
|MailMonitor/i
bogus-virus-warnings.cf:describe VIRUS_WARNING62        From header
indicates unhelpful 'virus warning' (62)
bogus-virus-warnings.cf:score VIRUS_WARNING62           3.5

Only works with emails sent by Julian, mailscanner at ECS.SOTON.AC.UK, not from
the list in general.

Thanks,

Derek
