Sorry the updates are appearing so thick and fast at the moment.
I wish everything was rather quieter than it is right now. But you folks
need protection against the latest nasties, so I haven't much option.

I have corrected the problem with this morning's code where it wasn't
correctly handling messages that contained both a password-protected zip
and an unprotected zip.

I have also added a check so that if you set the max nesting depth to 0 but
still ban password-protected zip files, then the attachments are checked
for password-protected zips without the other rules being enforced on the
contents of the zip files. It will only check the first level of nesting
though, as it obviously can't check a zip file it has been asked not to
unpack or create in the first place.
