I haven't been able to find any logs that will tell you exactly what
MIME types are showing up when it refuses the messages, but, you can try
searching the web for MIME codes that belong to specfic file types, and
then commenting out the lines in your badloadertypes and badmimetypes
files in /var/qmail/control
When updating these files, be sure to run
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-badloadertypes and
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-badmimetypes so as to update the appropriate .cdb
hash files also in /var/qmail/control.
