This message has been rejected because it has
a potentially executable attachment "testing attachments.eml"
This form of attachment has been used by
recent viruses or other malware.
If you meant to send this file then please
package it up as a zip file and resend it.
I don't understand this. I can send a new email with an attachment but I
can't forward one that was previously sent to me.
Incidentally the attachment was not executable. If it is relevant I am
using Linux Mint 10 KDE.
Can anyone help please?
Thanks
Neil
I have now tested sending an email with an attachment only, no text.
Same error. As long as there is no attachment I can forward emails
successfully. It is obviously the attachments which cause the problem.
Thanks
Neil
Neil,
Check your anti-Virus configuration for scanning outgoing messages. Turn
off scanning outgoing messages.
BTW most Anti-Virus applications will flag and block .zip attachments.
Michael G
not if you encrypt the .zip attachment..
