Hi folks,

i would like to know why the following mail is blocked by
qmail-scanner-1.20rc3 with "Disallowed content found in
MIME attachment". The content is rather harmless.

Looking into the perl code, there is some comment on this
saying 

#This will catch headers that are *correctly* broken over two lines.
#No known mailer does that, but virus writers do, so we block it.

Thanks for any help.
