[Mimedefang] sobig virus slipping by mcafee.

[Stefano McGhee]

Hello,
	As if the issue wasn't dead enough, I added the --mime switch to my
config earlier this week.  Even with that in there, I still get the
occasional message that gets past the uvscan on MD.  The message seems to
simply have the mime encoded text of the pif file in the body.  Keep in
mind that my 3500 message /day server still gets 750 SoBig's daily.  Only
two or so slip by a day.  GroupShield (by NAI) picks it up on Exchange
which sits behind the MD box.  Go figure.  Just reporting my findings.

Cheers,

Stefano
