Looking at my last 30 days log, I found this exception 22 over about 58,000 messages
scanned (with 7600 viruses found).
There are sometimes other exceptions thrown, due to the fact that there are sometimes
some "malformed" messages flowing (especially the spam ones) that do not follow the
rules. I'll have a look at it.
I suggest anyhow to have a two level "defense": invoking the IsInfected matcher with
onMatchException="noMatch" set followed by an "AttachmentFileNameIs=*.exe *.com ...."
filter.

The package name I used writing the IsInfected matcher is
"it.praxis.james.matchers.*", and everything is in a totally separate and signed jar
("it.praxis.james.jar"). Corey must have inserted my source in his
org/apache/james/transport/matchers downloaded from CVS, changed the package
declaration and recompiled. THIS IS NOT MY CODE.
