Allow Blackberry redirector messages

[Greg J. McGreevy]

Sorry to seem ignorant or be a pest just so I am clear on what I need to do. As I would like to leave the current rule in place as it is a good practice. here are the steps I will take.
 
1) create new file called content.scanning.rules and place in the path /etc/Mailscanner/rules folder
 
2) file should read as below:
 
File: content.scanning.rules
FromOrTo: default yes
From: *.*blackberry*.net no

3) edit Mailscanner.conf change the following line that currently states:
 
Dangerous Content Scanning = yes

to

Dangerous Content Scanning = %rules-dir%/content.scanning.rules

 

Thanks for you time

Greg

Just add this line to /etc/MailScanner/rules/content.scanning.rules

FromOrTo: default yes

Then "service MailScanner restart", or "service MailScanner reload" if
MailScanner is already running.
