I can't open the maillog file, its too huge for memory, and there is no attachment warning message. Only the header shows mailscanner listing it as infected. Im sorry, the message doesn't have anything to do with learn spam the easy way. I think im functioning with half a brain because I've been banging my head trying to figure this out while it would probably take 5 secs for you. Im trying to set the conf file to let everything in. It doesn't seem to be doing any good. Im looking in the filetype and filename . conf's but nothing seems to be related. Yahoo seems to be forwarding as an html attachment.

What does the log say about this message? And what does the attachment
warning file say?

And what does this have to do with "Learn Spam the easy way"?

When I look at the header, Mailscanner says its infected but its not. I tried this from different emails and different messages with the same results. Does anyone have any ideas?
