[Esd-l] Badtrans worm signature trap for local-rules.procmail

Poking through all of the badtrans samples in my quarantine (sheesh!)
I've picked out what may be a rule for detecting it. It doesn't have
any base64 strings (any volunteers?), but the attachment does appear
to have a good signature in the boundary and Content-ID header, which
is consistent across all samples I have.

Comments solicited.

  In 1998 more than three times as many people in the US were killed
  by incompetent physicians than were killed by handguns, yet the
  President of the A.M.A. is adopting "gun safety" as his platform.
