Allowing PDF files

[Martin Hepworth]

Harry

By default PDF's should flow OK.

check your filename.rules.conf and filetype.rules.conf to make sure
there's nothing there.

Also there has been issues with Sophos not liking PDF's and falling over
with an odd error. This can be alleviate by making sure MailScanner.conf
  has the following option set..

Allowed Sophos Error Messages = "corrupt", "format not supported"

Of course if you're not using Sophos for anti-virus then you can ignore
that.
