Default clamav reject message is not customizable very much, not enough
to make it vary and indicate CLEARLY AND IN BIG LETTERS it was phishing
/ it was spam (clamav used to filter out only viruses so it was not a
problem).
So I need to replace it.
So I need to blackhole the message myself (do accept, not deny) and
generate another message myself and send it during SMTP time with 5xx code.
This is complicated, nevertheless, this is an optimum solution which I seek.
