Html forms

[Bill Sholar - WebGusto]

Thanks -- I tried it and found that it hangs my version of MailScanner from
late last year.

Time to update...

You might want to simply use "disarm" rather than blocking them. This way
the mail will get through and users won't be upset.

If you want to allow on a domain basis you would need to create a ruleset
for it, which might be a pain to administer if you handle a lot of domains.

It looks like a fair number of legit messages have HTML forms in them.

Any suggestions about whether to block these across the board, allow them,
or make rules?

Forgive my ignorance, but if we create a rule allowing html forms in
messages from xyz.com, how does MailScanner determine the actual sender is
xyz.com?

Thanks -- Bill
