This is SO incredibly simple. I missed the feature for years! So, in an
effort to help others:
If you want to check text in PDF and TXT attachments simply install the OCR
plugin. You do can turn the actual OCR part of the plugin off and just to
PDF and TXT extraction. This won't convert images to text, but that's
awfully processor intensive (which is why I shied away from the whole
plugin for years).
