Hi there
Following situation:
We receive tons of mails with .doc attachments containing a virus.
Now we configured our mailscanner to block all .doc files.
Is there a way to make the blocked file releaseable?
Now, if we need a file, we connect via ssh, copy the file & chown it. Then download it via ftp.
It would be great if we could just click at "release"
I´m open for suggestions

This is very doable, you have to tweak MailScanner and MailWatch though...let me find my notes and post the steps...

Re: Block filetype releaseable
/etc/MailScanner/MailScanner.conf
/var/www/html/mailscanner/conf.php
Code: Select all
# Do you want to store copies of the infected attachments and messages?
# This can also be the filename of a ruleset.
Quarantine Infections = yes
Code: Select all
define('QUARANTINE_USE_SENDMAIL', false);

It works. Thanks a lot
Is it possible to release the whole mail with the attachment again instead of sending an extra mail with only the attachment?

I don't think MailWatch can release a blocked attachment using sendmail.
