To Mr.Olivier,
CC: Amavisd users

After we have considered and deep checked and then we found this error related 
with this configure below "amavisd.conf" ,
### amavisd.conf for BLOCKED ANYWHERE  # qr'^UNDECIPHERABLE$',  # is or 
contains any undecipherable components
qr'^\.(exe|exe-ms|dll)$',                   # banned file(1) types, rudimentary

Due to before enable this configuration , This issue not happened before.
Once enable this configure to block exe in .zip file , this kind of issue begin 
to happened.

And we also test with below
1. Email with normal plain text => still block with (554 5.7.0 Bounce, 
id=30228-09-2 - BANNED: text/plain,.exe)
2. Email with image file => still block with (554 5.7.0 Bounce, id=30228-09-2 - 
BANNED: text/plain,.exe)
3. Email with pdf file => still block with (554 5.7.0 Bounce, id=30228-09-2 - 
BANNED: text/plain,.exe)

#All 3 cases maillog message show
BANNED, message contains text/plain,.exe
(554 5.7.0 Bounce, id=30228-09-2 - BANNED: text/plain,.exe)

Have anyone ever found this kind of issue when enabled " 
qr'^\.(exe|exe-ms|dll)$', " ?
And how to fix this kind of issue ?


Please do not hesitate to contact us , If you have any questions .
Best Regards.

You need to look at the full variable $banned_filename_re, it has more than 
qr'^\.(exe-ms|dll)$', and goes on several lines, ending with a single line with 
);

You also need to look at one good message in /var/virusmail/banned and see what 
is the exact contents, why it is banned (example:
X-Amavis-Alert: BANNED, message contains .exe,.exe-ms,PO.exe), etc.

Maybe Lotus note includes a signature that is banned?

Best regards,

Olivier
