Several viruses have come out in the past few weeks
which have beaten Symantec to the punch. To try to cut
down on the number slipping through the a-v plugin for
Imail, I have a message rule set up which blocks
emails with extensions of exe, pif, scr, bat, and even
zip (thanks to the encrypted variety).

B~filename=.*\.exe!OR!B~filename=.*\.pif!OR!B~filename=.*\.scr!OR!B~filename=.*\.bat!OR!B~filename=.*\.zip:[EMAIL
 PROTECTED]

Last week, a couple got through with the old .com
extension so I tried adding filename=.*\.com to the
rule. The problem with this is that any message with
an attachment of any kind and a link to a website or
email address ending in .com within the message gets
dumped.

Using Imail's built in message rules, is there any way
to block .com attachments?
