Status: Closed Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Tokio Kikuchi (tkikuchi) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: check attachment header by SpamDetect.py

Initial Comment: SpamDetect.py and Privacy -> Spam interface can check incoming message haeder by regular expressions and discard/reject/hold the message. It can prevent viruses by blocking multipart messages but many users are now want to pass multipart. This patch extents the check into the attachment header so that viruses which have .exe/.pif file can be prevented by the same interface. Note that cheking is limited to the second level of multiparts because collecting all the header will cause infinite loop because owner notification message is also checked by this module. Usage: after applying this patch and restart mailman, go to the privacy/spam admin page and insert a rule content-.*name.*\.(exe|pif|com|vbs) to be discarded.
