What's wrong with your machines -- why "even" on them?!?!? ;)

The problem is that with postfix, there is no easy way to specify multi-word
argument in master.cf.  When using e.g. quotes, pipe(8) agent will spawn a
shell for every message -- this is not good.  I already did a workaround for
this for -S (sendmail-path) option -- it can be either multi-word (splitten
by avcheck) or there may be many -S options.  Well, the same can be done
for -h option too -- but is this worth the effort?  Note that currently,
with hardcoded template, the header looks like for -h host.tld:

 X-AV-Checked: Mon, 10 Dec 12:45:55 host.tld

well, there is no "scanned on" words (better yet is "scanned by host at date")
in this message.  But is this needed?  (I personally will never use this
option here, -- I just can't, with content_INSPECTOR).

Another interesting idea might be to format this header like

 X-AV-Checked: by host.tld with kavdaemon version 1.36 at date

or

 X-AV-Checked: by DrWeb date host.tld

(this last one can be done w/o any additional argument(s), by
using first part of -s arg: -s AVP:/path/to/AvpCtl).

I in fact don't know.  And I don't want to invent a config file
for avcheck (such things will be very easy to implement in config) --
since it will cost additional time, currently, avcheck startup time
is *very* small.

Regards,
 Michael.
