so your filter would be

B~".*\pvbs":null ???

however it misses the file entirely if the attachment phrase does not
include file=.  Our older server sends Attachment= "whatever" so the
name=would miss that entirely.

Maybe our older one is the only server that ever sent files this way but I
doubt it.  I think the only way to catch them is to look for the filename
only and not include the name= at all...

____________________________________________________________No, because the
first string contains the second one. The rule

B~name=".*\pvbs":NUL

will catch both filename="test.vbs" and name="test.vbs".

Note that this mail would be filtered by the rule above.

Should we use both to make sure to catch all of them?
B~name=".*\pvbs":NUL
AND
B~filename=".*\pvbs":NUL
