Greetings. My apologies for posting this if this subject has already been covered or if this is the incorrect forum. I searched the archives and used Google, and I have not yet found a resolution to this problem.
I manage a small ISP, and I use AMaViS-new with Clamav and Spamassassin on Debian Sarge. A few of my customers are unable to send emails with images (scanned or digital camera photos) because they get blocked by AMaViS-new. The message bounces back to them (and me) with the subject "BANNED NAME (message/partial) FROM LOCAL <email address>." The reason given in the email is "BANNED: message/partial." I have asked the three clients about their operating systems, software, and hardware, and I can find nothing in common with any of them. I even went to one customer's house and watched her insert the image into a Word document, then try to send it, but I didn't find anything unusual. The email was rejected if the file was sent as a Word document, and also if it was sent as a plain JPG file. Does anyone know why this would be happening? I checked the banned file names list in the amavisd.conf file, and none of the rejected files had a banned file extension. Again, please forgive me if this is the wrong place to post this question or if this subject has been covered before. I've been researching it for several days, and I have not found a resolution. Any helpful advice or comments will be sincerely appreciated. Thank you in advance. Cassandra __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
