It looks like perhaps 'file' is incorrectly identifying this file? If I added the following to the $banned_filename_re, would it skip the [trash]/0001.dat file? $banned_filename_re = new_RE( [ qr'^\[trash\]/0001\.dat$' => 0 ], .... ); How can I then test it with the either the email or docx file that triggers this to see if it still happens (without having to mail the file...) I should mentioned before that this is on an fc18 system with amavisd-2.6.6. I've also seen debian bug reports submitted for this issue back in July. I was unable to find an amavisd bug report, though. Thanks, Alex
