I was looking through the code on 1.21 and saw that virus scans are
disabled on plain text messages...  This can be a problem when a plain
text message with an old style Uuencoded  attachment is in-lined into a
message using begin and end statements... Take the following email for
example...  (note I snipped the attachment so don't try to make this
jpeg load cuz it wont.. you want a copy of the message, email me, cuz
its too large for this list's 40kb limit).

This is mom, so I think this would have to be Russell?  I think mom has 
this picture, or one like it?  I think it was taken over on the old
place 
on the creek.  It's got the dugout on the hill - looks like where the 
dugout was that mom said Gm Edwards stayed in when they lived there,
before 
they moved over to the big house we knew.

Inject this message to yourself and see how your email client handles
it...  Outlook 2000 shows me an attachment, so does Yahoo Mail.

Here is the proof that QS bypasses Virus Scans on it....

Thu, 08 Apr 2004 10:14:43 -0500:17737: This is a PLAIN text message
(because it's either not mime, or is text/plain), skip virus scanners -
but not SA

I can do the same thing with an embedded exe.  Beware if you are using
1.21...  I'm not sure what other version are effected.. I know 1.15 is
safe because that is what I'm still using.

If anyone finds any flaws in my reasoning here.. Please let me know.
