Whitelist trouble

[bra00424]

Hi,
The HR director for our company is unable to receive an email that I have both whitelisted the from email address as well as the "Recieved From" IP address. THe message "Report: MailScanner: Attempt to hide real filename extension (The 401k PPD VS.aaa.pdf) " along with a Red "Y" alonside the "Blocked File" and a red "Y" alongside the "Spam WHitelisted" shows up. I guess I am confused while these emails will not come through...
Thx,
Brad

Mailscanner has a rule that checks for double filename extensions.

/etc/MailScanner/filename.rules.conf

Code: Select all

deny    \.[a-z][a-z0-9]{2,3}\s*\.[a-z0-9]{3}$   Found possible filename hiding                          Attempt to hide real filename extension

Comment out this line

Code: Select all

#deny    \.[a-z][a-z0-9]{2,3}\s*\.[a-z0-9]{3}$   Found possible filename hiding                          Attempt to hide real filename extension

Restart MailScanner

Code: Select all

sudo service MailScanner restart
