Block Specific Attachment Types
Some types of attachments are used as virus carrier files. MailScan for Linux allows you to specify such attachment types and these are automatically blocked. This feature can also be used to stop confidential data being mailed as attachments.
Another feature is a white list of users and domains to whom mails can be sent without scanning. This feature removes double scanning and increases mail delivery speed.
