Thanks for clarifying this. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Charlie Kaiser Sent: Monday, October 11, 2004 7:28 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: scanning inside zip files
It can scan for virii inside a zip if you configure it to. Attachment blocking will not block executables inside zips, though. We just block the .zip extension due to the recent zip file virii. If anyone wants to send a zip file, thy just have to rename the extension to say, a .piz file. You can also configure it to block files regardless of whether the extension is correct or not. ********************** Charlie Kaiser MCSE, CCNA Systems Engineer Essex Credit / Brickwalk 510 595 5083 ********************** > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of > Carmila Fresco > Sent: Thursday, October 07, 2004 4:28 PM > To: Exchange Discussions > Subject: scanning inside zip files > > I apologize if this has been asked before. > > Does anyone know if Trend Scanmail for Exchange scans inside zip > files? > > I'm blocking executables and other attachments.
