Yes, it would but I haven't found a way to delete at the firewall. I'm using a watchguard box. -----Original Message----- From: Mulnick, Al [mailto:Al.Mulnick@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, June 16, 2004 4:10 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: TXT FILES http://www.MSExchange.org/ Wouldn't it make more sense to delete it at the firewall rather than removing the content and forwarding it? _____ From: seabass [mailto:denisedorrance@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, June 16, 2004 2:18 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] TXT FILES http://www.MSExchange.org/ Is there any way I can delete a whole email without passing it on to it's intended recipient based on whether or not it contains a txt file. I get several emails a day from users saying that the received a strange email containing ATT00000.txt. These files are coming from the firewall saying that the original attachment was deleted due to unsafe content. I somehow want to delete the whole email if it contains one of these files without delivering. I'm using Exchange 5.5 and Norton Antivirus Enterprise Edition version 8.0. Will be upgrading to Exchange 2003 in the near future if that helps any. ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Exchange Newsletters: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/newsletter.asp Exchange FAQ: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ Other Internet Software Marketing Sites: World of Windows Networking: http://www.windowsnetworking.com Leading Network Software Directory: http://www.serverfiles.com No.1 ISA Server Resource Site: http://www.isaserver.org Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ Network Security Library: http://www.secinf.net/ Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this MSEXchange.org Discussion List as: al.mulnick@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe visit http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Exchange Newsletters: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/newsletter.asp Exchange FAQ: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ Other Internet Software Marketing Sites: World of Windows Networking: http://www.windowsnetworking.com Leading Network Software Directory: http://www.serverfiles.com No.1 ISA Server Resource Site: http://www.isaserver.org Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ Network Security Library: http://www.secinf.net/ Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this MSEXchange.org Discussion List as: denisedorrance@xxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe visit http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist
