This is what I use to try to block most virus attachments (from looking at
the KB) HOWEVER~ once I did this (April 22) I stopped getting e-mails from
this list! I had to re-subscribe with a different e-mail address I even
unblocked .com thinking that maybe this had something to do with it. Anyone
know why that may have happened?

Also some virus attachments still seem to be getting through. Is it that I
am missing the second rule set without the quotes? Or is it the "filename"
vs the "name" thing?

Any help would be appreciated!

Marc

Note that this will not catch E-mails when the MIME headers have "name="
instead of "filename=".
