Hello all,

I have the following in /etc/MailScanner/MailScanner.conf
Notify Senders = yes
Notify Senders Of Viruses = no
Notify Senders Of Blocked Filenames Or Filetypes = yes
Notify Senders Of Other Blocked Content = yes
Never Notify Senders Of Precedence = list bulk

I also have the following
Send Notices = yes
Notices Include Full Headers = yes
Hide Incoming Work Dir in Notices = no

I tried sending myself an .exe file from a yahoo account.. but never got
a notification on the yahoo account, though I did get a Sys-admin
notification for "Bad Filename Detected"

Searched the mailscanner archives to find Julian asking someone to check
the reports, the report seems fine as well

been delivered.

Consider renaming the files to avoid this constraint.

The virus detector said this about the message:
Report: $report

What am I doing wrong?
