MailScanner seems to be having some problems catching the Goner-A virus. On
my systems it appears to miss it, so presumably the MIME decoding is
failing to work properly on it.
Until I manage to find the cause and publish the fix, I strongly advise you
to warn your users about this problem.
Sorry about this, it's the first time it has happened and I will try to
find a fix as fast as I can. Anyone else who wants to join the bug hunt is
welcome to try too! I have already contacted the author of the MIME-tools
module to see if he responds with any ideas.
Sorry again folks :-(
If you have managed to catch it, I would be very interested to hear exactly
what versions of the MIME-tools module you are using. It may be a bug only
present in some versions.
