NOATTACH(8)		    System Manager's Manual		   NOATTACH(8)

NAME
       noattach	-- scan	email messages for bad attachments

SYNOPSIS
       noattach	[-hn] [-p portinfo]

DESCRIPTION
       Noattach	 is  a	milter	that  parses  the  body	of email messages from
       sendmail(8) and checks if the filename of attachments  matches  one  of
       the  regular  expressions  in  a	 given	pattern	file and rejects those
       emails that match.

       Filenames are rfc2047 or	rfc2231	decoded	if needed.

       The options are as follows:

       -h	   Display a short help	with commandline options.

       -n	   Makes the program stay in foreground, i.e. don't fork  into
		   the background and don't update the pid file

       -p portinfo
		   The port to listen to

EXAMPLES
       Listen to ipv4 port 26 on localhost:

       noattach	-p inet:26@localhost

       Listen on a unix	socket:

       noattach	-p local:/var/run/f1.sock

       You  also need to add INPUT_MAIL_FILTER to the .mc file you use to make
       the sendmail.cf.

       Information about  the  parameters  for	INPUT_MAIL_FILTER  is  in  the
       README.libmilter	file wich is in	the source tree.

FILES
       These pathnames are set at complie time.

       /usr/local/etc/noattach.patterns
	     Regular expressions used to find bad attachments.
