You could easily be right too.  To be honest I didn't pick up that the
original poster was referring to attachments (my fault, should read more
carefully).  As far as I can tell razor only processes text, whereas DCC
and pyzor aren't volunteering the information anywhere obvious.  I
always assumed that they generated a checksum for the entire body, even
if that is a multipart message - but that may well be incorrect.

I think there are some problems with classifying non-text attachments in
this way, since there might not necessarily be anything objectionable or
harmful about the attachment, and some attachments could conceivably
show up in genuine mail (for example gifs or jpgs of company logos).
