MailSafe is a feature on ZoneAlarm Pro (http://www.zonelabs.com) that
identifies in e-mail attachments potentially harmful files (ex: *.exe,
*.com, *.reg, *.vbs or others that can be added in this feature
configuration), and renames their extension to *.zl*; at the same time it
can show an alarm box to inform about this.

The problem with this feature is that it do not work with long file names,
like:

<<zonetestzonetestzonetestzonetestzonetestzonetestzonetestzonetestzonetestzo
netestzonetestzonetestzonetestzonetestzonetestzonetestzonetestzonetestzonete
stzonetestzonetestzonetestzonetestzonetestzonetestzonetestzonetestzonetestzo
netest.com>> (the same goes for other file types as .exe .reg or .vbs)

All versions of ZoneAlarm have this problem.

ZoneLabs is informed of this since 1 February 2001, and until now (version
2.6.84) the problem remains the same.
