Password protect

Anyone know if its possible to send a bounce back to the sender if a password protected archive is quarantined?

The "Notify Senders Of Blocked Filenames Or Filetypes" and "Notify Senders Of Other Blocked Content" don't seem to do anything with regards to encrypted archives.

Thanks.

1. Set http://www.mailscanner.info/MailScanner.conf.index.html#Allow%20Password-Protected%20Archives
either to yes (blanket allow) or to a ruleset allowing just a few (spefcific users).

2. Perhaps set how deep into archives you try scan to 0 (ie not alook inside at all). Only do this if it complains about it in the logs.

3. Check that your AV scanners don't detect them as viruses/suspicious files.... How to handle that depends on which scanners you use.

Think that should be about it:-)
