This looks fairly thorough. Just some minor questions:

Occationally I see the spelling "calmd" where I expected "clamd",
is this correct or a typo?

This part I read with great interest:

I am getting hundreds of viral warnings from all over the world
of viruses that had forged my name in the from-adress, occationally
they helpfully return the virus too. Does the scanner catch these
too?

Somewhat tangentially it would be useful to be able to silently
drop all misguided viral warnings.
