Any static pattern rule will rot.

I recommend the following change:

  * 987654321^1 ^Content-(Type|Disposition):.*$.*name *= *"?(your_details|application|document|screensaver|movie)[0-9]*\.zip"?

  * 987654321^1 ^Content-(Type|Disposition):.*name *= *"?(your_details|application|document|screensaver|movie)[0-9]*\.zip"?

Note the addition of [0-9]*

Thanks, Aaron!
