Well even worse situation with Exiscan then if you are correct. All the
more reason it needs to be extended to be able to deal with various
charsets/systems etc.

If the commercial anti-virus system we have behind Exim/Exiscan can
successfully unpack everything then open source should be capable of no
less :-)

Just think that a) people should be aware of the potential risks and b) we
encourage Tom to continue to improve an already useful system.
