In my last post, I though only to the protection of the computer itself, but in case of a server, it is better to also filter spams and virus. (and I have to tell I never implementd such because of I'm the only user of my server!)
But if any email content is removed, the recipent must be always be warned of the removal and not leaved without any news that a mail have been changed or even worse deleted. (I do not know how spamassin and similar can be configured).
And slso, I think that the process must be as light as possible while remaining efficient, because it is too much boring to fail to send an attached file to a customer because it only may be indesirable because it is an exe, a dll or any sort of executable (like gmail does).
