MIMEDefang filters all e-mail messages sent via SMTP. -MIMEDefang splits multi-part MIME messages into their components and -potentially deletes or modifies the various parts. It then -reassembles the parts back into an e-mail message and sends it on its -way. - -MIMEDefang is written (mostly) in Perl, and the filter actions are -expressed in Perl. This makes MIMEDefang highly flexible and -configurable. As a simple example, you can delete all *.exe and *.com -files, convert all Word documents to HTML, and allow other attachments -through. - -MIMEDefang uses the "milter" feature of Sendmail to "listen in" to -SMTP connections. It runs a scan once for each message, not once for -each recipient (as simpler procmail-based systems do.) Therefore, it -is more CPU-friendly than procmail-based systems. In addition, -because MIMEDefang can participate in the SMTP connection, you can -bounce messages (something impossible to do with procmail-based -systems.) |
