Please have a look at the mimedefang-filter manpage, paying particular
attention to the "CALLING SEQUENCE" section.  In short, you can't
apply actions to message parts from filter_begin().  Have a look at
filter() and filter_multipart(); you'll have to run the virus scanner
on each message part (which is expensive) and handle the disposition
at that level.

Why do you want to do this at all, though?  There's virtually no
utility to passing virus-containing messages on to recipients even
with their payloads stripped. Consider discarding or rejecting the
entire message instead.
