Even better than what I posted. This is an excellent description of
what's happening. Thanks!

Add what you have with the -A entry I found, and we'd have exactly what

help along with the man pages and some other www resources have helped
me solve this half of the problem.

Now to try to do the same with ClamAV. This should be fun. =-)
