I'm not too sure what you are asking, but I believe that there is an
easier way to filter out attachments of specific types.

Are you using the default .junkfilterrc (copied from
junkfilter.config)? Look at the bottom of that file for
JFBADATT. It's contains a list of attachment
types that cause the message to be marked as spam.

Hopes this helps.
