Help with mail block attachments

Feb 11 06 5:50 am

Hi,

I have Wingate 6.1.1 (build 1077) configured to block pps and ppt attached files at receiving e-mails. But it isn't working.

I'm using pop3 collection.

Thanks for your help.

Hi Gabriel,

Have you tick 'Block attachment file type' from both Untrusted and Trusted Senders?

Yes, both options are ticked.

I noticed that in the Banned Attachments window is written:
"Messages containing attachments with any of the following file extensions will not be accepted for delivery".
Isn't the word "delivery" wrong ? Because it's is the Receiving configuration.


Thanks for you attention.

Attachment blocking operates on SMTP reception only, so not for POP3 collection.

We should probably wire it up to be available for POP3 collection as well.
