I am curious,

It appears that I have missed something very important in my Clamav setup,
0.65, in that I have several examples of Maildir files that contain a
known, detectable virus, that will not show as conatining such unless the
file is converted to binary from mime.  

I use the --mbox and --unzip options but stll no go.  I do apologize if
this is old hat, but I'd appreciate a point in the right direction on this.
