Subject: Identifies plain text file as MPEG-4 LO-EP audio stream
Package: file
Version: 4.12-1
Severity: normal

*** Please type your report below this line ***

The MPEG-4 LO-EP audio stream is identified at the
/usr/share/misc/file/magic as
0       beshort         0x4DE1         MPEG-4 LO-EP audio stream

0x4DE1 is "Má", a rather possible start for a plain text file:

We have a user in the network whose name is Márcio. Took me a long while
to find out why some of the emails arriving to him were being blocked by
the content filter (all emails starting with "Márcio, " were blocked as
being audio streams, since "file" is used on the filter).

BR,

Joao S Veiga
