I am experiencing similar problems on my OpenBSD 3.4 box and was
wondering if there has been any resolution on this issue.

I have an OpenBSD 3.3 stable box running in parallel with the OpenBSD
3.4 box that has caught the Worm.Bagle.Gen-rarpwd.

3.3 box running amavisd-new-20030616-p2         
        patched to allow scanning of full message
clamav-0.67-1
unrar-2.50

3.4 box running amavisd-new-20030616-p8
/etc/amavisd.conf settings
        $keep_decoded_original_re = new_RE(
        qr'^MAIL$',   # retain full original message for virus checking
clamav-0.67-1
unrar-3.20beta3

Don't know if any of this information helps but only solution I have
right now is to ban all ".rar" files on the 3.4 box.

Thanks
