Hi

yes, I need to log all attachments. Suspicious attachments (like vbs, exe ...)
were allready blocked with the system_filter (if content-type ...). But how
do I log all mails with any attachment to a seperate logfile ?
I only have to know about to write the "if-directive" - the logging via systemfilter
is:

.
.
.
logfile /var/log/exim/attachments.log
logwrite "$tod_log $message_id has attachment: $1"
logwrite "$tod_log subject: $rheader_subject"
logwrite "$tod_log recipients: $recipients"
logwrite "$tod_log return path: $return_path"
logwrite "------------------------------------------------------------------------------"
unseen finish
endif

:-)
