<p>Dear Louis,</p>
<p>A file ending in ".com" is a computer code executable program.</p>
<p>Mailscanner is seeing "<a href="http://example.com" target="_blank">example.com</a>" and disallowing it as a
potential executable.</p>
<p>This is normal expected and by design behaviour,</p>

Have you ever seen something like this.
I just e-mailed a file, with a name as shown below.
SSL Server Test <a href="http://hostname.example.com" target="_blank">hostname.example.com</a> (Powered by Qualys SSL Labs).pdf
The resport shows :
Message: Executable DOS/Windows programs are dangerous in email (SSL Server Tes.com)
And its shown in mailwatch as : application/pdf; charset=binary
Now the thing i dont get here is, how is the name "SSL Server Tes.com" constructed from
The name : SSL Server Test <a href="http://hostname.example.com" target="_blank">hostname.example.com</a> (Powered by Qualys SSL Labs).pdf
I only change the hostname and domain here, i kept the format exact the same.
Greetz,
Louis
