Our IT area now requires Avast, which apparently does have the ability 
to mark headers for incoming mail when the “mail shield” component 
is enabled, but the only option when scans are run manually is to 
quarantine the necessary *.elm files directly by moving them into a 
“chest”.  It does show the full path for files (messages) with 
problems though, which is where I was getting the message ID from.  But 
unfortunately the report with this information appears to be just for 
display of the information, without any ability to export the list of 
files as text or even copy for pasting into something else.  The file 
path data can be copied via a contextual menu, but only for each one 
individually.

In the end I just enabled the Msg Id column, sorted by that, and went 
through the list by visually scanning the Msg Ids to locate the items 
quarantined in the report.   It took longer to do it this way, but 
having the ability to view and sort by Msg Id at least made it possible. 
  Thanks again!
