Thanks Tom for your comment.

I think Darren's filter is for spam control. I want block files. Email Sanitizer is a good option (ftp://ftp.rubyriver.com/pub/jhardin/antispam/procmail-security.html) but I'm not a linux expert and configuration is not clear for me.

Not a problem.  I'm by no means an expert either, but I saw the thread a while back and thought it may help you.

Good luck!
