.doc only spam

I can see that the .gif only spam filters need to be broadened out
to handle .doc and probably proactively a bunch of other extensions.

<adopts phony Suthin accent> Honey, I cain't tell one way or t'other.
</adopts>  I am ***NOT*** stupid enough to try to view suspicious
email, two in a row with no subject purportedly from the same
address, without vetting it via properties->details->message source.

BUT - I'd not be surprised if it did if they were inline with HTML
as this one was.

I figured it was 50/50 that it was a spam or a virus. Either way ah
ain't innerested.
