Encrypted attachments getting quarantined (PureMessage for Unix)

Lately I have observed that Encrypted (Password protected) attachments are getting quarantined as "Suspect" under the policy rule "Quarantine mail containing suspicious attachments".

The file types are quarantined are,

* Microsoft excel .xlsx   or  .xls

* Zip archives   .zip

My users are used to send password protected excel files as a precaution on files containing sensitive data such as account details, etc.

This is a recent development and I am pretty sure that this was not enforced previously on these type of attachments. Encrypted PDF documents are still passing through without any issues. I wonder if anyone else have come across this and I strongly believe this change should not have been made.

Kind regards,

Pubudu.

  • Hi Ace,

    You can actually do this from the web GUI and it's a lot easier if you are not familar with the command line.

    If you are familar with the command line tools, then it's most likely in /opt/pmx/etc/policy.siv

    If you commit changes to this file, you will need to restart the milter process in order for them to take effect.
