Filter question: can we filter out attachments by name
I was looking for a file in the TB "attach" directory, and guess what I found: happy99.exe Well, that didn't belong there! So of course I hit delete. No real harm, since TB doesn't go around opening attached files. But, I certainly would save myself some time if I could simply delete these known worms - So basically I want to have TB automatically delete any attachment with specific names or extensions. Any suggestions? Or should I just stick with deleted the email? (The problem with focusing on the content of the email is that as a webmaster for a big site, people write to me with technical questions - so it would not be uncommon for the text of an email asking for help to include the name of a known worm.) -Abigail -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org

It is not the job of TB! to automatically delete *any* attachments, if you have a good virus checker it will find such worms etc. when it scans the Attach directory. -- Mark Aston mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gunfleet.com http://www.gunfleet.com/LinuxGuide Using The Bat! 1.47 Halloween Edition Under Windows NT 5 0 Service Pack 1 2195 -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org
