Hi Jason

I have tested it before posting to the list. I have 
$BAD_MIME_CHECKS='2' but the attachment is passing through with the 
extension 'txt'...

I found the code, sorry.

Eudora for MacOSX is doing something by its own, it doesn't rely on 
the extension to set the content-type, so the check is not matching:


--============_-911336969==_============
Content-Id: <a06240804c9ae19d24a6c@[10.10.82.254].0.0>
Content-Type: application/octet-stream; name="SetupERunAs.txt"
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="SetupERunAs.txt"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64


Tue, 22 Mar 2011 10:38:47 CET:29470/29465: w_c: attachment  2: 
Content-Type of application/octet-stream found
Tue, 22 Mar 2011 10:38:47 CET:29470/29465: w_c: base64 looks like a 
Windows executable, 
filename=setuperunas.txt,type=application/octet-stream
