    [ The following text is in the "iso-8859-1" character set. ]
    [ Your display is set for the "US-ASCII" character set.  ]
    [ Some characters may be displayed incorrectly. ]

Just two small issues any help is appreciated:

1.  when dealing with password protected archives, I have my rule set to no
so that I block them,  problem is using MailScanner, these are caught.  EVEN
when I add, 127.0.0.1, localhost, the actual hostname to the same rules with
"yes".  I'm not sure why, but nothing I try allows the host to forward these
as released message using MailWatch.  I know this is not a MaiLScanner
issue, but thought I would try anyways.

2.  Also, ,when blocking attachments, a notification is sent to the
recipient that something was stripped.  I want to keep these from being
sent...is this "Deliver Cleaned" rule?  This only says virus in the
comments:

# Do you want to deliver messages once they have been cleaned of any
# viruses?
# By making this a ruleset, you can re-create the "Deliver From Local"
# facility of previous versions.
Deliver Cleaned Messages = no


so I wasn't sure it applied to blocked filenames too.
