hi,

i've been looking for a way to have spamassassin stop virus attachments (.pif, .scr etc) but i can't find it anywhere. i'm using disspam.pl to remotely scan my IMAP inbox for spam so i don't think i can use a local antivirus gateway without having to download my email first. is there any other useful tips for spam/virus scanning IMAP boxes?

thanks in advance,
~ kiri

I am just about to get spamassassin set up. I noticed that it does have a test called MICROSOFT_EXECUTABLE that should allow filtering of all attachments that are programs.
