There were some additional file names that can be executed under MS
Outlook added to:

    http://www.johncon.com/john/QuarantineAttachments/

a few days ago. With the filename spoofing that some unpatched
versions of Outlook still have, the malicious HTML detection is still
overly aggressive-you can remove it if you want.

Some configuration would probably be required, depending on what you
want to do with a message that has potentially malicious code.
