How can I configure MailScanner to allow zip/archive files through even if they contain an exe file or other potentially dangerous filename or filetype?
You can configure MailScanner to not check archives (zip, tar.gz etc). i.e When you are trying to send emails, the mail scanner should allow .zip .tar .gz extension in email. By default the mailscanner will block these extensions. Okay, here i have configured the mailscanner in the WHM. So, kindly follow the steps given below to disable those blocking methods.
1) Go to WHM > MailScanner > MailScanner Configurationand search for ‘Maximum Archive Depth’.

2) Change that to 0 to disable it.

That’s it. The mailscanner will allow the .zip, .tar and etc. The attachments will still be scanned for viruses.
