http://qmailwiki.inter7.com/Simscan/Guide#Attachment_Processing There seems to be an RPM for ripmime that works for EL4-i686 here, though I don't block attachments ... so I have not tested it: http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/2123043/com/ripmime-1.4.0.5-1.el4.lsn.i686.rpm.html there is an SRPM there for ripmime to build this for other arches/distros if needed.... This would be installed at /usr/bin/ripmime (per the RPM) ... so you would need the following in your simscan SPEC file: remove the "--disable-ripmime \" line and add these --enable-attach=y \ --enable-ripmime=/usr/bin/ripmime \
