I'm not certain this is *the* way to do it, but...assuming you've
allowed the attachments in your MailScanner.conf and rules files and
want to resend them:

install sharutils via yum (this set includes uuencode which is used in
the next step
once that's done, this should send the stuff to the recipient:

# uuencode filename filename | mail -s "subject" [EMAIL PROTECTED]


I'm sure that someone who knows more than I will post, but this worked
for me on CentOS 5.2 in my shared hosting environment.

There's a setting in MailScanner.conf which will allow saving the actual
queue files, not just the attachments...I changed this setting to 'yes'
to enable a more simple method (moving the qf* and df* files back to the
queue)
Quarantine Whole Messages As Queue Files = yes

YMMV..
HTH,

Hi

You can move the attachment to another directory, change ownership to 'admin' 
and then FTP the file down and re-email to recipient, obviously if it you will 
have to send to an address that won't go through MainScanner!

For a more permanent solution edit /etc/MailScanner/MailScanner.conf, find the 
following lines:

Quarantine Whole Message = no
Quarantine Whole Messages As Queue Files = no

..and change them both to 'yes', now when emails are quarantined it will store 
them as message files (dfm and qfmxx) which you can just copy 
back to the /var/spool/mqueue directory (You don't need to copy the attachment 
file), the message will not go through MainScanner again and will be delivered 
to the recipient.

This may vary depending on your setup etc but should point you in the correct 
direction)!

Thanks
Rob

You should direct this question to the MailScanner list. But first read 
the archives there as this is a fairly common question!
