follows

Allow Filenames =
Deny Filenames =
Filename Rules = %rules-dir%/filename.rules
Allow Filetypes =
Allow File MIME Types =
Deny Filetypes =
Deny File MIME Types =
Filetype Rules = %rules-dir%/filetype.rules


*Filename.rules*

From: /\* <at> domain\.com/
/etc/MailScanner/attachmentrestriction.rules.conf
From: 127.0.0.1 /etc/MailScanner/filename.rules.allowall.conf
FromOrTo: default /etc/MailScanner/filename.rules.conf

*filetype.rules*

From: /\* <at> domain\.com/
/etc/MailScanner/attachmentfiletype.rules.conf
From: 127.0.0.1 /etc/MailScanner/filetype.rules.allowall.conf
FromOrTo: default /etc/MailScanner/filetype.rules.conf


*attachmentrestriction.rules.conf*
