FYI, when I first came across this problem, I also tested it this way as
well.

For the rule, I simply picked "Match All".

For the action, I had first piped the message to klammail.  The second
action was to move the message to a unique folder.  This second action
isn't really necessary but I wanted confirmation that the message filter
and its associated actions had executed.

I just repeated these steps.  The messaged saved is not tagged by
klammail.

Perhaps we should get back to the original discussion and intent of my
posting.  The instructions that are provided with klamAV for Evolution
are as follows:

If one sends a virus infected message through klanmmail, it inserts a
string in the header 'virus-found'.  

Why is a virus infected message that is piped to klammail using either a
*rule* or an *action* in Evolution not modified with its headers showing
'virus-found'.

Klammail is working on this system; I have tested it using KMail with a
pipe-through rule and it inserts the headers per the klamAV
documentation.
