Mailscanner does not deliver some attachments
Posted: 13 Jun 2012, 11:11
Hello
Today a coustomer reported that he can not receive e-mails that have attached files such as *.docx and *.xlsx
All other attachments such as .pdf and .doc is working just fine.
When someone is sending an e-mail with .xlsx file it goes straight into Pending Queue in cmq. After a while the sender gets an email saying;
Our virus detector failed to completely analyse a message you sent:-

I have Mailscanner installed from you on many other servers and they are working just fine. I can't figure out what is wrong. All servers seems to have same config.
Any adivce?
Kind regards,
Nick
