Yes and no.  The code just looks for something that's an exe, regardless of
being a virus, but that's more of a virus-scanning thing than a spam-scanning
thing, hence the name of the plugin.

correctly when the content type has been disguised as is evident from the 
original included sample email.

Right.  I understand your issue.  My POV is that the plugin is really available
as an example of what can be done with a plugin, so I don't want to "waste" time
working on it.

That said, I'll put up a little patch in a minute which I think does the right
thing -- ignore the content-type, and look only at leaf nodes in the tree.
