Toen wij Robert Allerstorfer kietelden, kwam er dit uit:

 + the lower threshold for a mail's size to be tested for an infected
   mail has been further decreased to 1 KB, since a very tiny virus (a
   rar'ed 'Trojan.Downloader.Small.GY' with a file size of only 994 B)
arrived. 

Because of base64 there is 33% overhead.
Add some mimeheaders of at least 60 bytes each.

All in all, I guess that the *body* of the message 
must be at least 1.4 KB. 

But there must exist smaller virusses.
