If so, I'd *love* to know how. It has been tried before... at least in 1.62 and didn't work here, and a number of people also pointed out it didn't work, and I thought I gave a pretty good explanation of it a while ago, it's in the archives under html filtering somewhere. >> and you cannot filter inside that part. > ...but I would appreciate it if they implemented this feature. Yes... it would be good... providing you allow for filtering inside the attachment headers if the content-type is not text/* otherwise you'll probably start matching things in the attachment body for words like sex. If the content-type is text/* then allow the filtering inside the attachment body too. Plus you also have to take into account that the attachment must be encoded in 7bit or 8bit, or provide a base64 decoder as part of the filtering, and to be honest, that is going to slow the filtering down a *lot* when it comes to bit emails. - -- Jonathan Angliss ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQA/AwUBPig+DiuD6BT4/R9zEQI6AwCfSiqX0Gg1Llooq6t8mr8UCzSy2wcAoNv9 APuVzGT6jZT3auzFKLHFcvQI =XniL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.62 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
