``Much confusion in you I sense, young Jedi.''
If you want to rewrite the *SUBJECT* of the messages, then why are you
trying to rewrite the *RECIPIENT* header?
Having said that, I think that what you're missing is the 'f' option in
the rule that pipes mail to formail and that you don't really need
formail for something as simple:
:0 Hf
* X-Virus-Status: Yes
| sed -e 's/^[sS]ubject:[[:space:]]\+/Subject: [virus] '
