Policy filtering with postfix

[Robert Storey]

I'm not an expert on Postfix or any other MTA, but it might be that your
logs are displaying headers or attachments with high-order ASCII text
used by non-Roman scripts (Chinese, Korean and Japanese would be good
examples).

I have some files from Chinese Windows (Word docs and html) and when I
list the filesnames at the console in FreeBSD, this is how they display:


????.doc
????.htm
????1?1.doc
??????.doc
??????? ????????.doc
?????????  ??????.doc
?????????? ?????.doc
??????????.htm
????????????.doc
??????????????.doc
??????????????? ?.doc
??????????????? ??.doc
???????????????.doc
?????????????????.doc
??????????????????????????????.doc
????????????????????????????????.doc

So maybe this is your problem.

best regards,
Robert
