ASSP can not decode uuencoded emails which is how many of these are being sent. It can not block based on attachment type if it can not see what is in the email. Some of those will get caught by ClamAV if you are using that with ASSP, but not all, as it comes down to how new are your signature files and does Clam even have a solution for that particular file. At this time ASSP file blocking is not absolutely reliable for this reason.

My understanding was that bad attachments would be bounced. What have I done wrong?
