That was not a bug. It was an attempt to guard against malformed MIME like this: Content-Type: appliaction/octet-stream; name=foobar.exe .txt vs. Content-Type: appliaction/octet-stream; name=foobar.txt .exe Who knows what various MUA's will do with this? If you anchor the regexp, you might cause unsafe behavior in one case. If you don't anchor the regexp, you might cause overly-paranoid behavior in the other. However, the old behavior was so unpopular that as of 2.39, I anchored the regexp.
