Mailscanner unpacks a batch of messages to a temporary directory tree,
and then runs the command line scanners on that directory.
When the scanners report back infections. MailScanner, since it kept
track of where each message was unpacked, can parse the output and
delete/quarantine/warn of each infected message.
