Hello Jim,

I've started working on some of these also. SNF usually does look
inside file attachments so it's possible we can get to some of the raw
content -- in fact, most of it is already coded - but being inside all
of the binary cruft in a word document is keeping it out of the
scanning window. We are catching some of them, and others not so much.
We will keep working on it though.
