Allow partial attachment passing

[gesture]

Hi,

I've set up a rule to block potential harmfull .bin files in attachments, and when a mail arrives it is blocked. But when the attachment is a Microsoft Excel document, there is extra info in the attachments for printing purposes, and these are all in binary (.bin) format. Due to the rule, the entire mail is blocked, but I would like to have the message and the Excel document to pass, but the .bin files blocked.Is it possible to allow partial attachment passing?

Greetings,
Gesture

Could you email me an example? I've never heard of this before.

I'll send you my address in a PM.

Hi gesture,

you've got my email address. Can you create a sample excel file and send it to me at those two addresses? I want to see what's actually happening and to see if there is a way to create a rule that will allow them through for you.

Also, why is excel creating multiple files? That just bizarre. I've never seen that before.
