Report if .EXE found, but keep quiet on .SCR

Hello,

On my Debian Linux system, EXE, SCR and other executables are blocked. I
want to set up MailScanner to work differently on some file types.

1. I would like to block EXEs, and report this blocking to the recipient,
the sender and the postmaster. Attachment should be quarantined. (it works
now)

2. I would like to block SCRs, but keep quiet, neither them nor the
postmaster should get a report, and MailScanner shouldn't use the
quarantine, only delete this attachment.

I read about using rules like "allow" and "deny" in the filename.rules.conf
file, there is no "deny-but-not-report", because reporting and quarantine is
configurable only in mailscanner.conf, and it is system-wide.

Is there a solution? How can I set up this?

Thank you in advance:
GaborV
