4.50.9: winmail.dat rejections

[Jeff A. Earickson]

Julian,

It has been pointed out to me by an Outlook user that the
new message in filename.rules.conf is misleading:

deny    winmail\.dat$       Windows security vulnerability                          No Outlook Rich Text Format messages due to security hole, use HTML instead

That it should say:

deny    winmail\.dat$       Windows security vulnerability                          No Outlook Rich Text Format messages due to security hole, use plain-text instead

My reading of a couple of googled pages on "winmail.dat problem"
implies that selecting HTML mail will generate a winmail.dat
file anyway.
