I think you are right Mr Vanasco.
I have been trying to do the same.
But how can I use the perl script inside filter file to read the content
from another file(block_attachment.conf),
Enabling perl module in source Local/Makefile can enable perl script in
filter file too?
Editing a flat-file using php is a piece of cake.
thank you
