I pretty much filter everything.  One of the good aspects of Antigen for
Sybari is that I can "quarantine" certain items and "approve" delivery later
if I choose.  For example, I filter all *.exe files but some *.exe files
might serve a legitimate purpose (very rarely happens..but it does).  User
will notify me before or after the file is sent.  If I deem the executable
worthy then I simply forward it to the recipient using the Antigen
interface.

Even though I'm filtering just about every extension known to man I still
have to watch out for these double extensions.....(Example: *.txt.vbs,,
*.txt.exe,, *.txt.lnk).   ETC.

The next version of Antigen will allow content filtering.  This helps but
can cause other problems so I will use it sparingly.
