Re: [Declude.Virus] blocking eml and msg attachments

[Darin Cox]

Plain text would be my preference as well, to see headers and message at once. Hmmm...may have to try Thunderbird again.  It seemed to be missing some features I liked in OE the last time I tried it.  I would use Outlook, but it still experiences too many failures in communicating with the TCP/IP stack, and is too slow and bloated for my taste...and preview doesn't seem to work as well as OE.  If MS would combine the best features of OE and Outlook, they'd have a better mail client.   Darin.     ----- Original Message ----- From: Matt To: Declude.Virus@declude.com Sent: Wednesday, September 14, 2005 2:46 PM Subject: Re: [Declude.Virus] blocking eml and msg attachments Hmm, works fine in Thunderbird/Netscape, or at least I can see it as plain text. It seems from Pete's MIME headers that he intended for the message to just simply be attached and viewable as the original message.  If he changed the extension to .eml that should work.  I'm not sure whether or not is is better to see the plain text source or the rendered message.  I guess I am used to seeing the plain text and it is easier for me to figure out what the rule matched that way without a Ctrl+U to view the source (shortcut in Thunderbird/Netscape).

I myself would prefer them not to be named .msg (.txt would be _great_) as I can't open them directly in OE that way. I have to save them to disk in order to see which false positive I reported.

I was not banning eml and msg. I realized that as I was getting AOL feedbacks. What I was banning was 1.msg as there was a virus reported to be using that. Sniffer responds to false positives and in doing so, renames the request to 1.msg as an attachment to the response.

We wouldn't block them separately because of all of forwarded messages sent as attachments, both by us, AOL feedback loops, and by our users.

If there is an eml or msg attachment which that has a executable or virus attachment, will Declude properly decode it and will it be scanned for viruses and banned attachments?
