Then there's something wrong with your setup.

I've just scanned your file (both the original mail.zip and the
extracted looooooong_filename, and clamscan have detected the worm:

$ clamscan mail.zip message_text.txt\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \
\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \
\ \ \ \
\ \ \ \ \ \ .pif
mail.zip: Worm.Sober.I FOUND
message_text.txt
.pif: Worm.Sober.I FOUND

----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------
Known viruses: 27516

$ clamscan -V
ClamAV 0.80/604/Wed Nov 24 00:01:33 2004
