Folks,

Why don't we make a really simple anti-virus program, which simply rejects
all .doc, .exe, etc attachements? I for one would love to have such a
possibility in postfix configuration. Something like:

***********************************************************************
Do yo want to bounce all emails with dangerous attachements(*) back to
sender? (Y/N)

(*) .exe, .doc, (give a full list here) attachements are known as
source of computer viruses, and therefore potentially dangerous. While
many anti-virus programs exist, which scan such attachements, the
simplest way to make sure no viruses go trought is to deny ALL
attachements of these types. While very efficient, this solution may make
some of your users really mad at you, so use with care.
*************************************************************************

WDYT?
