Just replaces local-rules, not html-trap.
Lets me kill viruses up front, and logs them so I get some stats.
I'm running nkvir --> html-trap --> spamassassin for a complete package.

| I took a look at that, and I couldn't clearly see any generic

| 
|  1) test (using straight procmail) for MIME headers about an 
| executable attachment, then
| 
|    2) scan for signature strings to identify which specific attack
| 
| Those rules look like a limited subset of what the Sanitizer 
| already does. I've discussed before why pure procmail cannot 
| reliably detect attachment-based attacks.
