Erik, The instructions on this web page, http://www.webhits.de/tools/sendmail-postfix-sobig.html, at the very bottom, are just different enough from what you entered to raise some questions. (postfix part pasted in below) First, do you have the mime_header_checks entry in your main.cf file? Probably, or I don't think it would log things. Second, the /^\s*Content line is a little different from what you have. Might be worth a try using this example line they have. Bill The generic solution is to disallow certain known to be dangerous attachment types. In main.cf you must use: mime_header_checks = regexp:/etc/postfix/mime_header_checks.regexp and /etc/postfix/mime_header_checks.regexp contains: /^\s*Content-(Disposition|Type).*name\s*=\s*"?(.+\.(lnk|asd|hlp|ocx|reg|bat| c[ho]m|cmd|exe|dll|vxd|pif|scr|hta|jse?|sh[mbs]|vb[esx]|ws[fh]|xl))"?\s*$/ REJECT Attachment type not allowed. File "$2" has the unacceptable extension "$3" The leading space before REJECT is important! Don't forget "postfix reload"! ----- Original Message ----- From: "plug" To: Sent: Wednesday, May 12, 2004 1:40 PM Subject: Seemingly simple postfix chore > I have a machine filtering spam on SuSE 9.0.
