Yeah, I asked about this some weeks back. I don't mind how many
attachments are with an email, which your ACL snippet simply counts (if
I've got that right ?). What I mind about is the depth, since this
causes both ClamAV and SA serious woes when you get some misconfigured
mail server nesting bounce messages over and over.

For the Mime ACL could we have something like $mime_nesting_depth ? Then
it'd be a doddle to block stupidly deep attachments :-) It of course
might affect chain letters, but who's worrying there ? ;-)
