Bad Content - user notify mail

Post by Alex »

Hi,
there is no notify mail for mails are claimed from the filename rule "Bad content" in the quarantine.
I need a notify mail to the users. So a admin can release the requested Mail.

Please help

You would need to enable this setting since the report is an attachment to the original message, and the cleaned message is not being delivered.

Note that enabling this causes spam checks to be bypassed, which is why it is off by default. So, if you get a lot of emails with viruses attached, for example, your users may receive a lot of junk with viruses stripped off.

/etc/MailScanner/MailScanner.conf

Code: Select all

Deliver Cleaned Messages = Yes
Restart MailScanner

Code: Select all

sudo service MailScanner restart
Another solution to make this work a little better would be to define a rule set and list the domains from which you want to deliver cleaned messages.

Hi,
Ever fixed this? I have the exact same problem. But if I set deliver Silent Viruses then my users are getting the attachment, that should have been removed.

Kinda lost here,
