!! It never crossed my mind that archives  use a different setting !!

Thanks for the tip , These are the relevant  settings in MaiScanner.conf :

# These are the equivalent of the settings above, except they apply to
# files which are contained within "archives", as defined by the
# "Archives Are" setting at the top of this section.
# They can all be rulesets.
Archives: Allow Filenames =
Archives: Deny Filenames =
Archives: Filename Rules = %etc-dir%/archives.filename.rules.conf
Archives: Allow Filetypes =
Archives: Allow File MIME Types =
Archives: Deny Filetypes =
Archives: Deny File MIME Types =
Archives: Filetype Rules = %etc-dir%/archives.filetype.rules.conf

I did something like the filename.rules previous mentioned and tested it 
and it works !!

Thanks a lot !!

George
