Hi,

I'm attempting to allow password protected archive files to be sent from
   our domain but the rules don't seem to be working as I've got them
set-up.  I've tried using *@bas.ac.uk as well as bas.ac.uk in the From:
line of the rules file.

The emails get put in quarantine with the MailScanner report of:-
MailScanner: Message contained password-protected archive

MailScanner.conf has the following in it.

Allow Password-Protected Archives = /etc/MailScanner/rules/archive.rules

the archive.rules file consists of :-

#Allow mail from BAS with password protected archives.
From:   bas.ac.uk       yes
# By default don't allow password protected archives.
From:   default no

Any help would be appreciated.
