Kevin,

Here's my complete MailScanner.conf:

Jerry:

I changed default to *@* this morning in the course of my, "did that work? No, okay, how about this," but the result was the same regardless.

I'm not applying any configuration via conf.d at the moment...if I were to do that, would it supersede anything in MailScanner.conf?

Maybe you could post your MailScanner.conf to pastebin.  I'm guessing something in there is wonky.

Well, an interesting update...

I changed up my approach, and pointed the Deny Filenames = in
MailScanner.conf to %rules-dir%/filename_deny.rules , which is as
follows:

To: *@* \.ico$ \.ani \.cur$ \.hlp$ \.zip$ \.ceo$ \.cab$ \.reg$ \.chm$
\.cnf$ \.hta$ \.ins$ \.jse?$ \.job$ \.lnk$ \.mat$ \.pif$ \.scf$ \.sct$
\.shs$ \.shb$ \.vb[es]$ \.ws[cfh]$ \.xnk$ \.cer$ \.its$ \.mau$
\.md[az]$ \.prf$ \.pst$ \.tmp$ \.vsmacros$ \.vs[stw]$ \.ws$ \.com$
\.exe$ \.scr$ \.bat$ \.cmd$ \.cpl$ \.mhtml$ \.s{10,}
\.[a-z][a-z0-9]{2,3}\s*\.[a-z0- 9]{3}$

When running MailScanner --lint now, it DOES detect eicar.com as a
blocked filetype.  However, it's still allowing blocked filetypes
through ?

I will try that tomorrow...i'm about out of other ideas.

I suppose I could also try the new MS beta, just to throw something
else at the wall...

I’m not pimping my product, but I would suggest you install a
Mailborder server for a comparison test. Check to see if it is working
correctly (the Mailborder server) and compare the configs on the
Mailborder server to yours. This will at least eliminate the
Mailscanner configuration variable from the equation.

Sigh, built a brand new MailScanner box from scratch...once again,
everything works except filename checking. The only thing I changed
was to disallow zip files(just changed allow to deny in
filenames.rules.conf) and it still lets it all through.

It just doesn't seem to want to work, with no errors to shed any
light.
