[Mimedefang] Unintended consequences

Hmmm....

I had an email that was titled "Re: Broken DNS for ctwg.com"
which I tried to forward to someone as an attachment from
Thunderbird.

Thunderbird names the attachment whatever the subject line is,
and encodes it as message/rfc822.

Alas, MdF is seeing an attachment names ".com" and deciding
it doesn't like that.

That seems to be a little broken.

Would it make more sense to suppress this test if the
attachment type's Mime info doesn't suggest it's dangerous?
