So far I've just explained to the sender why it's a good idea for them to change their filenames.
Guess I could add an exception to filename.rules.conf but there are .pdf exploits so I kind of hesitate to. If you get enough flak for pushing the problem back on the source, you could create a ruleset for the particular .gov (sub)domains and add that into fileame.rules.
Best...
