David, 
perl code is your friend :-) 
MIMEDefang is very clean and clear (thanks David).

Look at your mimedefang-filter filter, especially filter_bad_filename
You will have to 
-  add  return 0  if  (....) ;  in filter_bad_filename for special cases you want to allow
 or 
- change  the $re reg-exp
