"Banned Content" question

[Quentin Campbell]

Most of the "dangerous content" checks that I carry out with MailScanner
are controlled via rules files. In all cases the actions of the rules is
to either "deliver", "delete", "striphtml" or "attachment". 

I do not use "disarm" with one exception. In MailScanner.conf I have 

  Allow WebBugs = disarm

If I see in the logs "Content Checks: Detected and will disarm HTML
message in jBAtTRU022337" does this _only_ refer to the "disarming" of
web bugs or can it also refer to actions taken over other content which
did not involve the specific "disarm" action?

Looking at the log records for other "dangerous content" actions the
empirical answer to the above question is "yes". Could this be confirmed
please.

Thanks
 
Quentin
