You can use this to block all UUENCODED attachments:

\bbegin\b \d\d\d \b\S{0,72}.*(\S{61}).{0,61}\bend\b# UUECODED attachment

I have been blocking them since I first posted about this problem (dunno
how far back that was, but its in the archives).  I have not heard a
single complaint.  No modern email clients use UUENCODE.
