ripmime --recursion-max setting?
Is anyone seeing messages in qmail-scanner that cause ripmime to exceed
20 parts and cause tempfail ?

output spotted from /usr/local/bin/ripmime --unique_names -i - -d
/var/qmail/qmailscan/tmp/mailgw.nmgi.com108670228878018143/
(mime.c:2666:MIME_unpack_stage2:WARNING: Current recursion level of 21
is greater than permitted 20

I have a copy of the message that triggered this one... And it didn't
appear to have that many MIME parts..

But when I run ripmime from the command line, it produces 53 or so
textfiles! Is this just a badly formatted MIME message?

So my question is... How many messsage similar to these might there be
out there, and is running --recursion-max 60 worth it to save bad
formatted message if/when they are legit?

Thanks
