  We get these as well but there are no passwords on them.  Try opening one of those 78 byte zips and you will see what I mean.

  Hello all... 
    
  even though I have "Allow Password-Protected Archives = no" in my mailscanner conf, I still get emails going through with apparently password protected zip files attached , mind you the zip files are empty, so I do not know if its mailscanner doing something to it or they are that way before they get to the server as I do not seem to see any reference in my logs to mail scanner doing anything to these files.....??

   
  I am running MS 4.28 
  SA 2.63 
    
  with a few conf files 
    
  On redhat 9.0 
    
  Thanks 
    
  :) 

  Rob....
