Stripping/refusing email attacments

[Zathros]

Is there a way to write a script/mail filter in SCO Unix or sendmail so that certain attachents can be refused by the mail server? I'm running a windoze network with an SCO Enterprise file server and I can't depend on my users to keep their antivirus software up to date. I'd like to just flat refuse .vbs, .exe and .scr files.

Any suggestions?

Sure.

http://www.aplawrence.com/Unix/attachstrip.html

talks about virus stripping.

Or, put in server based virus scanning.

Disclaimer: I both sell and support a product that does this:

However, there are MANY competitive products that offer this, and it can be done on your SCO server also:

The script will probably do nicely since we are a small company.

Thanks!
