Hi Toasters,
I've got a client who is a printer. They get a lot of mail sent to the in PDF format. Most of them aren't coming through. When I look through the quarantine.log file I can see the messages are blocked with "Disallowed MIME boundary found in attachment". Why would this be if there isn't a virus present in the attachment? and How can I fix it?

I'd also be interested to see what you find out. We ran into this this morning at our worksite with our Mac users trying to send images (probably pdf's) to their printers. Thanks a bunch!

This is due to changes in qmail-scanner. There is a new mime related option in toaster-watcher.conf. Read about it, adjust it, then rebuild qmail-scanner and try again.

I have no clue what you are talking about, sorry. We don;t have an email server on site (we use pop3 accounts). Where could the problem be? On the Mac computers? At our pop3 server? At everyone's email server?
