There is definitely code to do that. However, if Ethy has disabled it
via "--fix-mime 1" (or otherwise turning  $BAD_MIME_CHECKS below the
default value of "2"), then it won't trigger

I've just tested it - it works with "fix-mime" set to the default value
of 2. I sent a "Content-Type: image/XXX" email with "notepad.gif" -
which was an executable - it was blocked.
