Our system receives an automated email from the government notifying us that our files have either been received or ready for pickup. Unfortunately IMail Anti-Virus seems to think this message contains a virus, when in fact it does not. I was told that possibly the message has a malformed header and that is what Imail AV detects as a virus, but I have no way of correcting that, the government will not modify the autoemailer to correct this.
 
Is there anyway to simply tell AV to trust all email from this sender? I have disabled AV in the meantime, but would like to get it up and running again. We are not that vulnerable because I have setup rules to redirect all known virus type file attachments to a special account for validation, so in theory no viruses should make it past the rules but I would like to have AV running as another layer of protection.
 
Here is the message/header in question( changed the addresses):
