Unfortunately, we need the notifications because of the legit emails
that come in (user names file with 14 periods, etc).

Subject: scan for spam after filetype violation

I'm getting a boatload of messages with a settings.exe or zip in them
and the attachment filetype rules are triggering just fine, but we're
getting slammed with the resultant notifications.

 

I thought I could make a simple spamassassin rule to catch these, but it
appears spam checks aren't done if the file dumps out for the violation,
virus, etc.

 

Is there any way to pass these message on thru so my SA rule traps them?

 

Thanks,
