Goner-A problems

[Paul Fries]

Perhaps upgrading TNEF would fix this problem?

 v1.1 is out.

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.
