Sure, cause this is not possible.

Evolution has a filter to pipe a message to an external app -- that
means, the message is piped to the app, but Evolution only takes a
return value and not the output on STDOUT of that app.


To have those additional headers and info SA writes, you will need a
different approach, like fetchmail and procmail.

AFAIK this is default and uncommenting effectively does nothing. ;)

Coincidence. SA is *not* expected to filter any virus.
