To create a new MIME type, click
New Type
. Enter the
MIME type and description. Click
OK
.
The new type appears at the bottom of the Content Types drop-
down list. Repeat this process for each content type. For a list of
MIME content types, see the Reference Guide.
You can use wildcard characters as follows:
To allow content types
An asterisk (*) matches any string, including an
empty string.
To deny file name patterns:
An asterisk (*) matches any string, including an
empty string.
A question mark (?) matches any single character.
Denying attachments based on file name patterns
The
Content Types
tab includes a list of file-name patterns
denied by the Firebox if they appear in email attachments.
To add a file-name pattern to the list, enter a new pattern in
the text box to the left of the
Add
button. Click
Add
.
Note that denying a particular attachment does not auto-
matically trigger protocol anomaly detection (PAD) rules.
You must specifically add the content type to the PAD
rules, as described in “Configuring the Incoming SMTP
Proxy” on page 138.
Specifying a deny message
In the
Content Types
tab, you can enter a message to be
shown when a content type is denied–this message is
shown to the recipient only and not the sender. A default
message is provided. Use the variable %t to add the con-
tent type to the message. Use the variable %f to add the file
name pattern to the message.
