My recommendation would be to use the Symantec Engine to block the
extensions.

Using your web browser go to :8004 (default) of your IMail server. Default
password is admin, go to Blocking Policy, Click on the Mail tab, and scroll
down to Blocking by attachment file name and put in your extensions.

It works a lot better than the custom rules in IMail.

Subject: [IMail Forum] Exe files now getting through

Hello,
I have the latest version of iMail but clients as complaining that they  
are getting emails with virus laden .exe files.
We blocked file extensions with exe and scr a long time ago via an  
inbound rule:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:NUL
B~Content-Disposition\:\sattachment; 
\s*filename=".{0,100}\.bat"\s{1,10}:!BOUNCE!
B~Content-Disposition\:\sattachment; 
\s*filename=".{0,100}\.exe"\s{1,10}:!BOUNCE!
B~Content-Disposition\:\sattachment; 
\s*filename=".{0,100}\.scr"\s{1,10}:!BOUNCE!
B~Content-Disposition\:\sattachment; 
\s*filename=".{0,100}\.vbs"\s{1,10}:!BOUNCE!
B~Content-Disposition\:\sattachment; 
\s*filename=".{0,100}\.cpl"\s{1,10}:!BOUNCE!
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:!BOUNCE!


Does the latest version 8.13 no longer support this type of filtering?
