No, I can't help you anymore. I think I remember someone asking a
similar question and I think there was a thread of how to use
attachment's extensions to filter on. I am everything but sure, it may
have involved RegEx, which I have yet find something to do for me. In
other words I do have a slight clue about them but am not an expert.
Sorry!

  I quite agree but, unless I've missed something (not

  attachments. Do you know how to do this or can you point
  me to what I've missed?

  Thank you.

As you guessed yourself these messages contain executables you don't
expect. The sensible thing to do would be to make a filter looking for
file extensions that are dangerous. In this special case SCR (Windows
screensavers) and PIF (DOS starters from Windows) are used.

The filter should move the messages into a special folder instead of
being deleted at once - or you could move them to Trash and create a
colour group for them to spot them easier - so you can have a look at
them if any legitimate mail was filtered. If not kill them, or better
yet, delete the messages and kill the author.

I am sure there is a way to filter on attachment's extensions, but
don't know how, maybe with RegEx.

TB! V1.54/10 - SPAM blank messages

2001-11-26 Thread jan

Hello TBTechies.

   I have started getting SPAM msgs that are blank (text)
   with HTML links.

   No commonalities that I can find in the headers.

   The only thing they seem to have is each subject contains
   Re: (the rest is blank). I suspect a virus/trojan as each
   one of these msgs has attached files of different names.
   Examples:

*_doc.pif
*_doc.scr
mp3.pif
*_doc.scr
mp3.scr
*_doc.scr

   Any ideas how I can filter these out?

   TIA

Hi Mbone,

day, 21:10:56 local time here), you wrote, using »The Bat!«:

I *did* download some 1.54 betas but I don't use them because of some
really serious bugs.
