    I've started just dumping stuff like that.  Actually, I think if you
    look at /etc/procmailrc on Mithra you'll see some filtering I started.
    Here's a cut from what I'm using now:
    
    JAIL=quarantine@private
    FILTMSG="X-QCSN-Warning: "
    
    :0 BH
    * ^Content-(Type|Disposition):.*$?.*name=".*\.(scr|pif|dll|exe|com|lnk|bat)"
    {
    	:0 f
    	| formail -A "$FILTMSG Illegal extension, sent to quarantine" 
    
    	:0
    	! ${JAIL}
    }
    
    (The filter message makes it easy for me to see which of my rules
    caught a particular message.)
