confirmed


** Changed in: file (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Confirmed

** Summary changed:

- Email message identified as "Bio-Rad .PIC"
+ magic string for "Bio-Rad .PIC" is too relaxed

** Description changed:

  It seems the magic string for Bio-Rad .PIC is a tad too relaxed. I
  received a number of email messages which happened to have an IP number
  containing the octet 90 in a suitable position to produce a false
  detection.
  
  Those messages were private, but I managed to pare down one to a
  completely anonymous message which also exhibits this behavior.
  
- This is on Ubuntu Dapper with all the recent security fixes. (Oops,
- looks like one more arrived now. Sheesh.)
+ This is on Ubuntu Dapper with all the recent security fixes. 
+ Still happens on Ubuntu Gutsy
