Hi there, 

 The SA custom rulesets page refers to _MIME validation_ ruleset. This
is a small .cf file. I am interested in this rule: 

# ASCII-0 can crash mail clients. This is an absolute NO!
rawbody MIME_ASCII0 //
describe MIME_ASCII0 Message body contains ASCII-0 character
score MIME_ASCII0 1.5

Does anyone know why this char should crash an email client? I did
google a little for ASCII charsets and this char, but I could not see
how this might cause a crash. I wonder if this is not caused by badly
coded email client implementations?

Perhaps I am showing off my noob-ness :)

Thanks!
Simon
