How do I stop Warning email sent back about viruses

[mikemachin]

How do I stop Warning email sent back about viruses to the sender?

We don't particularly want virus senders to know they have a valid email domain...

[shawniverson]

Do you have any bounce rules defined?

/etc/MailScanner/rules/bounce.rules

[shawniverson]

Also,

Is this line defined properly in MailScanner?

Code: Select all

Silent Viruses = HTML-IFrame All-Viruses

[mikemachin]

We have no bounce rules set

I have the silent viruses set as you have listed - this setting hasnt been changed

[shawniverson]

Can you share a sample? Feel free to PM me if needed.

[mikemachin]

Sure - do you want a sample of Mailscanner, bounce rules or the bounce back email?

[shawniverson]

All three would be helpful, if possible.

[mikemachin]

I'm struggling to get the mailscanner over to you as its too large - what extensions can be sent as an attachment to the PM?

Thanks for detailed info...

In /etc/MailScanner/MailScanner.conf change this line as follows to disable these notifications....

Code: Select all

Notify Senders = no

I am going to recommend this option be disabled in the next update.
