Settings for what are blocked are your amavisd.conf file.
Search for $banned_filename_re or $banned_namepath_re
(probably only one of these is used). Edit these settings as
you see fit, see the RELEASE_NOTES and the amavisd.conf-sample
for instructions and hints.
Brackets "[ ]" are not blocked.
Maybe the file has a Microsoft Class ID extension -- something
like "{755410F0-3C4C-485D-8A90-B248BE8C39CA}" -- such files
can be used to force a particular program to open an
attachment and it's dangerous to give an outsider such control
over your system. However, the braces themselves are not
blocked, only when they appear in a string that looks like a
CLSID. If you need to allow these unsafe files, change your
$banned_filename_re or $banned_namepath_re.
