Re: mhexternal.pl and application/vnd.* MIME types

I seem to have run into a snag trying to configure MHonArc (currently 1.2.2
with upgrade to 1.2.3 pending) to enable it to successfully handle MIME
attachments of the new 'application/vnd.*' content-type definition.  I've
made the requisite MIMEFILTERS additions, but everytime I try to send an
application/vnd.* (eg: application/vnd.ms-excel)  MHonArc returns with a
"Could not process..." warning.  I'm thinking the filter code in
mhexternal.pl is unable to parse the '.' period in the content-type

The "." is the problem.  The rexp for grabbing the content-type did
not include "." as a legal character.  This will hopefully be fixed
in v2.0.
