Hello!
There might be a problem with this new version, making it give false
positives. I think that the following happened a mail with a attached
pgp signature (actually a Microsoft sec bulletin MS01-038) that contained
something like this:
------_=_NextPart_000_01C0FA6A.C39BAA10
Content-Type: application/pgp;
name="PGPexch.htm.asc"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Description: PGPexch.htm.asc
Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename="PGPexch.htm.asc"

^^^
(note this is not the actual message since it was lost during my testing.
Yes I know... But backups are for wimps :-)
I think that this might be becurse of the change from \w to . that should
have been into [^"] so that it don't continue past the name (I'm not sure
whether the ":s are mandatory or if we need to get into backtracking).
I then discover it sitting in the queue giving:
LOG: 0 PANIC DIE
string_sprintf expansion was longer than 8192
Since the match was quite long and when constructing the fail
message it became longer then 8192 chars. I removed the reference
to $1 in the fail message and the queue run went well (bouncing the
message).
