> The new MailScanner.conf configuration settings for this are:

> # Should the attachments be compressed and put into a single zip file?
> # This can also be the filename of a ruleset.
> Zip Attachments = no
>
> # If the attachments are to be compressed into a single zip file,
> # this is the filename of the zip file.
> # This can also be the filename of a ruleset.
> Attachments Zip Filename = MessageAttachments.zip

> The full Change Log for this version is...
>
> * New Features and Improvements *
> 1 Improved Sophos.install script so that it sets up /etc/ld.so.conf
> ready for
>   installation of Perl-SAVI module required for "sophossavi" virus
> scanner.
> 1 Custom Functions can now receive parameters not only to their Init and
> End
>   functions, but also to their run-time calculation functions (i.e. the
> real
>   custom function itself used when processing each message). The Custom
>   Function is now passed not only the message, but also a ref to a list of
>   parameters specified in the MailScanner.conf file.
> 1 Improvement to phishing net.
> 1 'clamavmodule' scanner no longer detects encrypted zips/rars as viruses,
>   leaving MailScanner to do the check later in the dangerous content
> scanning.
>   The consequence is that MailWatch will allow them to be released from
>   quarantine.
> 2 Updated a whole load of Perl modules in the pre-requisites lists for
> both
>   MailScanner and SpamAssassin.
> 2 Added a "--nomodules" command-line option to the MailScanner install.sh
>   script to skip installing required Perl modules.
> 2-2 Fixed bugs introduced by 4.60.2 in generic installer. Only affects
> 'other
>   Linux and non-Linux' installer.
> 2-4 Fixed more non-Linux installer problems.
> 4 Added more modules to the list output by "MailScanner --version".
> 4 Improved phishing net detection of HTML tags, courtesy of
> snifer_ at hotmail.com.
> 4 Added patches to provide full "p record" support in Postfix 2.3 and 2.4,
>   courtesy of Glenn Steen <glenn.steen at gmail.com>.
> 5 Added a new feature, to compress all the attachments in a message and
>   replace them with a single zip file.
>   Set "Zip Attachments = yes" (no by default), and
>   set "Attachments Zip Filename = MessageAttachments.zip"
>
> * Fixes *
> 1 Phishing net now correctly handles HTML tags inside links.
> 1 Deprecated clamscan flag replaced with supported one to stop it printing
>   the summary.
> 1 Added '-b' to nod32-1.99 command-line options in SweepViruses.pm to stop
>   scanner producing licensing details. Thanks to UxBoD.
> 1 Removed test in RPM distribution's test for RedHat 6 as it will clash
> with
>   RHEL 6 and Fedora. Anyone still running RedHat 6 has bigger problems!
> :-)
> 1 Worked round Perl bug in returning number of RBLs hit by a message.
> 1 Fixed problem causing some password-protected RAR archives to be missed.
> 3 Fixed bug introduced in earlier beta in RBL code.
