Does offset="0:8192" mean match 'Message-ID:' anywhere in the first 8192
bytes?
Yup, that's it. If that is found, and nothing with a priority score of
higher than 50 also matches, it'll return that type. If a higher priority
matched, that other one will win.
(There's also some bits for if the extension matches a type in the same
family, eg for specialising)
If so, I'm not sure it is working properly as I have some eml files with
this string near the beginning (but not at byte offset 0) where it does
not match. Is there some other logic involved which I am missing?
If you can share a small file that shows it, we can take a look for you.
