Thanks Mark. The following are my settings~
=================================================
< MailScanner.conf >
Quarantine Whole Message = yes
Filename Subject Text = {***File Quarantine***}
=================================================
=================================================
< filename.rules.conf >
deny \.zip$ - -
=================================================
=================================================
< release_Quarantine.sh>
#!/bin/sh
if [ -z "$1" ]; then
echo "Syntax: release_Quarantine.sh <Message-ID> i.e.
5B604228086.932F0 (case sensitive)"
exit
fi
#truncate the filename
mailname=`echo $1 | cut -d . -f 1`
#find the quarantined file and set permissions
quarantined_file=`find /var/spool/MailScanner/quarantine/ -name $mailname`
chmod u+x $quarantined_file
chown postfix.postfix $quarantined_file
#truncate the filename
#mailname=`echo $1 | cut -d . -f 1`
#lets get the first character
char=`echo $1 | cut -b 1-1`
echo 'source file name:'$quarantined_file
cp -p $quarantined_file /var/spool/postfix/incoming/$mailname
=================================================
If customer sent a email to my user with attachment of zip.MailScanner will
Quarantine Whole Message into "/var/spool/MailScanner/quarantine/" and add
"***File Quarantine***" to subject .
I can release original email when I review it as safe.(using
release_Quarantine.sh)
This is good for me,but process of MailScanner is spam test-->Virus
test->attachment test, so I cannot use specific words to block emails when
this email with low spam score. The user will still receive the email
without attachment.
If I change setting of filename.rules.conf => 「blacklist at domain.com \.zip$
- - 」,The email will forward to blacklist at domain.com if file has been
blocked, and then I can just use email client to forward message to user
when I review it later. This is not the original information of email,so
It’s inconvenient for me.
Is there a better way?

Thanks for your relply. Yes,I want know how to quarantine the whole message
if a file is blocked.
I can forward email to myblacklist account to achieve my goal. But I cannot
release original message as before.
Any idea?

Are you wanting to quarantine the whole message if a file is blocked?

If you set Quarantine Whole Message = Yes, does that do it?

Subject: Moving an existing Mail Relay from one VM to another.
Message-ID: <140EA446-F3F5-4462-83D7-F88F7DC695F3 at noc.ac.uk>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"
Hello,
Our existing mail relay is in need OS change, we have created a new one
based around CentOS 7 an MailScanner V5.3.4.
Everything seems to check out ? ??lint? passes without error.
Because the new system is not a legitimate mail relay ? we cannot do any
further testing until we move the IP address over.
We moved the IP Address from the existing VM to the new and changed
/etc/hostname and rebooted.
Mail started to be accepted and was processed as we would expect ?
MailScanner was identifying Spam and passing everything as normal. The
messages were passed to sendmail for processing.
We then noticed that mail was being delayed by two key 365 domains. We left
it like that for about 40 minutes and then reverted to the existing server.
After which mail was processed correctly. The messages in /var/spool/mqueue
were moved to the existing system and within 10 minutes everything was
cleared.
Has anyone had a similar experience?
Could it be that the new VM ? having a different MAC address ? was being
flagged as an illegal mail relay?
Thank you for your help, and sorry about the essay.
Vincent Andrews.
