How to filter attachments with *.exe, *.bat, *.scr

If you're trying to discard/delete the attachments outright, you could

use the following conversion channel entries,

out-channel=*; in-type=*;

in-type=application; in-subtype=*;

in-parameter-name-0=NAME; in-parameter-value-0=*.bat;

out-type=text; out-subtype=plain; out-mode=text; out-encoding=none;

delete=1

out-channel=*; in-type=*;

in-type=application; in-subtype=*;

in-parameter-name-0=NAME; in-parameter-value-0=*.exe;

out-type=text; out-subtype=plain; out-mode=text; out-encoding=none;

delete=1

out-channel=*; in-type=*;

in-type=application; in-subtype=*;

in-parameter-name-0=NAME; in-parameter-value-0=*.scr;

out-type=text; out-subtype=plain; out-mode=text; out-encoding=none;

delete=1

In this case, the message will still be passed thru, but the

attachment will be deleted. This is actually a pretty nice safety

net given the number of viruses coming in these days.

Hope this helps.
