That's tough. Uuencoded files aren't included in nice things
like MIME encoding, or have obvious headers that you can match on.
They might be caught by things like Anomy (see
<http://freshmeat.net/projects/theanomymailsanitizer/>) or MIMEDefang
(see <http://freshmeat.net/projects/mimedefanger/>), but I can't be
sure.
You may have to implement a custom mail filter that looks for
things like Uuencoded attachments, and then delete them. Tools like
Anomy and MIMEDefang would probably be a good place to start.
