Ken,

Filename rules will work without the file command. 

You will need the file command to use the FileType rules.

Sincerely,

I've added \.wmf to filename.rules.conf (under Julian's "More Microsoft 
security vulnerabilities"), but I don't have the file command turned on 
to use filetype rules.

What is the implications of enabling the "File Command =" config option? 
Are there any 'gotchas' I should be aware of?

Thanks,

Ken A
