Outlook rules help.

[Will]

Is there any way to delete a message by the title of the
attachment? For example, we keep getting netsky infected
messages, our anti-virus replaces the infected
attachments with an attachment called "removed infected
file.txt" I would like to create a rule that moves
messages with that attachment to the delete folder. Is
that possible? Then only rule I found deletes messages
with all attachments. Thanks.

Perhaps you could use the "With specific words in the message header" rule?
If that doesn't work out, you may have to use a COM addin to do it.

Is the AntiVirus solution you're using running on the local PC? Or at the
firewall/proxy/Exchange server? If it's the latter, there's probably an
option to have it drop the message instead of stripping the attachment.
