Could you point to the zip bomb problem, Brian? the quine (infinite
zipbomb) i think is limited by some sort of hard-coded depth constant.
are you referring to an infinite blowup, or "just" a finite expansion?
i agree that i expect GMime to be subject to finite expansions as well
(i haven't experimented with them though), but i think neither gpg nor
GMime should be subject to infinite expansion.
if you think otherwise, i'd be happy to read pointers.
thanks for raising this concern!
