MailScanner and Zip Attachments

[Antencek]

Thank you for your reply, Julian.


I have tried what you suggested:

MailScanner --value=zipattachments --from user1 at domain1.com
Result is "0"
MailScanner --value=zipattachments --from user2 at domain1.com
Result is "0"
MailScanner --value=zipattachments --from user2 at domain2.com
Result is "1"

Content of my zip-attachments.rules:
FromOrTo: @domain1.com no
FromOrTo: default yes


MailScanner --value=attachmentsmintotalsizetozip --from user1 at domain1.com
Result is "100000000"
MailScanner --value=attachmentsmintotalsizetozip --from user2 at domain1.com
Result is "100000000"
MailScanner --value=attachmentsmintotalsizetozip --from user2 at domain2.com
Result is "500000"

Content of my zip-attachments.size.rules:
FromOrTo: @domain1.com 100m
FromOrTo: default 500k


Attachment Extensions Not To Zip = .zip .rar .gz .tgz .jpg .jpeg .mpg
.mpe .mpeg .mp3 .rpm .htm .html .eml .wmv .avi


Looks like MailScanner settings are OK, but my MailScanner is ignoring them.

I was testing with 2Mb .pps file sending it as an attachment from
user3 at domain3.com to user1 at domain.com or user2 at domain2.com.
The result of sending it to user2 at domain2.com should be attached .zip
file, not .pps.

Can you see what am I doing wrong?


Thank you.
