Is content filtering even on? and if so, why if there is nothing in *_mime_types? What is the list of bad extensions you refer to? Are you using header_filter_rules to catch posts with 'bad' attachments? If so, this should only result in application of the action to the entire post, not stripping of sub parts. Likewise max_message_size. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
