Hello procmail experts,

first of all thanks for your support.

Modify as appropriate for other attachment extensions, though the gutz at the bottom of the recipe is what you should focus on if you're using something like spambouncer or something that will otherwise flag a message as having been spam or whatever, and then you'd take action on it in a similar fashion.


I tried the "truncate the body" method:

:0
        * ! VIRUSNAME ?? ^^^^
        {
                # trucate the body
                :0bfi
                | echo "(body discarded)"

                # cannot reply to the sender because it is probably forged.
                # (given crap like Klez and SnoWhite), so just
                # send advisory to the listadmin.
                REPLYTO=$BOUNCER
                BOUNCEMSG=virus.msg
                BOUNCESUBJ="virus rejected [$VIRUSNAME]"

                # Include bounce handler code
                INCLUDERC=bouncer.rc
        }




This only works well for mails without an attachement. If the mails have an attachement the body will be cleaned but the echo text won' t be inserted. Instead an empty mail will be delivered. Does anybody have any suggestions on this?


Thanks a lot,
Oliver
