- From the changelog:
07/28/2004 (1.144)
Fix subject line on recipient notification if message was discarded (Thanks to Joe Steele).
Defang webbugs in table elements.
Defang additional HTML tags.
Add $SPOOFED_SENDER handling option for reply control.
Minor bugfix in ZIP file detection and scanning.
Trap poorly-formed BASE64-encoded ZIP attachments (short lines).
Fix bug in BASE64-encoded zipfile decoding.


NOTE: Please either update to this version or apply the
1.139 Smarter-Reply patch from the website. The stock 1.139
sanitizer responds to attack messages with forged sender
addresses. This generates a great deal of useless email
backscatter.
