Let it ban across all domains, but use the BANnotify.eml with a requeue script. Worst case is that the user has to click on a link in the BANnotify to have the email requeued and delivered in a few minutes.

Honestly, I don't have any problem blocking .bats and .exes globally, and probably should and will do that via Virus. There may be some fall-out from anyone not expecting it. I can deal with that if it happens. But as you say, I'm not going to block .zips.

It can't be done accurately with Declude filters in JunkMail, though some might claim it to be accurate enough. FYI, I haven't found any resistance to blocking executables across more than 200 domains. Customers expect this, and even if they weren't blocked, other servers could still, and mostly will, block such files. Blocking zips is another story, and while some around here swear by it, I have created an external test in Declude that accurately detects virtually all zip viruses which allows me to continue to allow legitimate usage of zip files. This is a conundrum for many right now, but I don't think that the majority of my customers would understand or appreciate wholesale blocking of zips containing executables since that is the preferred method of transferring such files.
