What Andreus is asking about is the recommended configuration (strip
message/partial mime type) for the SMTP resource that CVP's mail to Trend
for inspection. FW1 has this nasty habit of stripping mime attachments
before it sends them to Trend, usually becasue of foreign character set
issues and I'm not sure what else. The problem was reduced greatly with SP4
(at least for me) but on occasion I still get mail that gets stripped
improperly by FW1. I was hoping SP5 would fix it completely, unfortunately
the release notes don't mention the problem at all so I'm not too hopeful.

I'm not quite sure what you're trying to accomplish here. If you're trying
to strip out attachments with certain extensions, then use Interscan
eManager to do that.
