Hello,

I just installed Mailscanner yesterday.  In my
/usr/mailscanner/etc/filenamerules.conf file I need for it to allow the
two extensions:

.map
.atr

I have added the two lines towards the top of the file:

allow   \.map$                  -       -
allow   \.atr$                  -       -

However, when I kill all the PID.s for Mailscanner and run
/usr/mailscanner/bin/check_mailscanner to restart, I.m still getting it
filtered (see bellow).   Any help you can give would be appreciated!

Also, is there a way to allow E-Mail's from a certain address not to be
scanned?

Thanks,
