Dear Jasson,

You can put content filter (mimesweeper) in front of your mail server, where 
policies can be defined for the email contents & attachments allowed.

Quoting Jason Haith <jhaith () genesissys com>:

Was asked to look into maybe putting in a Linux box in front of our mail
server to stop the massive amounts of email attachments we have been
receiving as of late due to 'MyDoom'. We currently have a WG FireBoxII and
software on our Mail Server that is supposed to be catching everything, but
with so much coming in it's missing alot. I was wondering if anyone had any
ideas on some type of solution for this, all input is greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
