Hi Dave,

IMail does not really check for attachements. The rule 'B~name=.{1,64}\.(ext1|extN)'
searches for text 'declaring' an attachement.

This rule could also trigger a text like this:

"name= beer bla poops .ext1"

And this is not an attachment;-) We realized, that some formattings are using the 
string
'name='. So, we received some FP's

Adding 'B~Content-Type\:application' helps a lot. Now we can be sure, that an 
attachment
is really attached.
