I don't find this particularly useful or desirable.
It makes no sense at the recipient's side to blindly believe
a received mail message is clean without checking. In this view,
a claim in a message that 'it is virus-free' or similar, must not
be believed and means nothing. In the same vein, a message
claiming (e.g. in subject) that it may not be safe, neither relieves
nor prompts a recipient to be more or less careful with the message.
It's just undesired clutter, possibly breaking signatures.
Also, adding tags like *UNCHECKED* or *LIKELY SPAM* or some such
on outgoing mail gives a recipient a bad taste of general mistrust
in the quality of a sender's mail system. "Either give me clean mail
or don't send it at all" I would say.
But I guess the above change won't hurt anybody, as the
$warn_offsite is always off in practice (it is a relict from times
of amavis-perl and thereabout).
