Is there any way to have SA report the IP address of the mail server
that it tags as spam when attaching the SA .txt report? If so, anything
that mime defang strips and puts the notification at the bottom can this
put the IP address as well?

Thank you kindly,

Shawn

Subject: Re: [Mimedefang] How to discard mail silently when it contains
bad attachments



After watching logs for a while, we determined that all pif and scr 
attachments lately are Sobig or some variant, so we decided to discard
all 
messages with a pif or scr attachment.  I put this code in filter before

the virus scan. (virus scan still runs in filter_begin so i get clamav 
logs of it)

     # drop all pif and scr messages -shawn 8/26/2003
    $drop_exts = '(pif|scr)';
     if (re_match($entity, $drop_exts)) {
         md_graphdefang_log("SLU dropping file $fname from $RelayAddr");
           return action_discard();
    }
