We just discovered blocked content warning messages sent to postmaster
do not have any report information.  Looking in the logs it shows the
message(s) have "Too many attachments".  Though the message is delivered
to the recipient with the subject modified with "{Blocked Content}" and
all the attachments included.

So should the content/attachments have been removed from the message to
the recipient?

And shouldn't there be some report information in the postmaster notices
like viruses, blocked attachments, etc have?

Example:

-Subject: Warning: E-mail viruses detected
-
-The following e-mail messages were found to have viruses in them:
-
-    Sender: xxxxx at xxxxx
-IP Address: 68.111.105.150
- Recipient: xxxxx at xxxxx
-   Subject: Fwd: Meat
- MessageID: i9PK9TQj024346
-    Report:
-Full headers are:

Also, should the subject be something more appropriate, instead of
virus detected?
