Well there lies your problem.. and i had previously hinted on this as
well. You have
Dangerous Content Scanning = %rules-dir%/user.content.rules
and /usr/local/etc/MailScanner/rules/user.content.rules
To: default no
From: default no
Which indicates that you are not checking for 'Dangerous Content
Scanning'. Filename/type checks depend on 'Dangerous Content Scanning'..
set the From to 'yes' and re-test.
