the original code before I made my change is actually
foreach my $p ($pms->{msg}->find_parts(qr/^(application|text)\b/)
> spammers seem to know that can can avoid check_microsoft_executable in the
> AntiVirus.pm plugin if
> they use a non-sensicle content type when attaching executable code. the
> plugin is too specific
about
> what content-types it checks and for this check I don't see why you cannot
> check all types.

> Instead of
>
> foreach my $p ($pms->{msg}->find_parts(qr/^(application|text|audio|image)\b/)

> or alternatively don't use find just use the parts list all together and
> check all parts.
