Has anyone ever seen this problem:

Warning: Unable to scan email content for keywords - Uneven size in DecodeToStream

The message was from an antivirus server sending a message to one of my customers. However he did not have a virus, it was from an infected computer spoofing his email addy.

Thanks to JimMeredith we received a copy of a full email message that caused the error. The problem was caused by invalid/corrupt encoding of the email, which caused our decoder to skip it since it would be unreliable.

We've patched the decoder so that it now converts all the valid data it finds, without erroring out. We'll include the fix in the next build that will be released within a few days.
