Attempt to hide real filename extension .docx.pdf

Post by JOP »

It's a prolem that mails with attachments using double extensions like ".docx.pdf" are blocked without informaion or non delivery message.
Some users make errors converting Word documents to pdf not removing the previous extension.

-> Please urgent implement notification either for sender or receiver or administrator, or all - asap!

Mails are lost with this setting, and some mails are important, verry importang.

The solution is simple. Remove the deny rule. I'll consider removing it from eFa as a default.

removing the rule results in additiioinal security risk.
Better generate notification mail, can I also implement this easily?
