Malicious attachments are a common way for viruses and ransomware to infect devices. BlueMail includes built-in safeguards to handle attachments safely.
What protections are available?
- Auto-Scan: Automatically scans attachments for known virus signatures before you download them.
- Block Dangerous Types: Prevents the download of executable files (
.exe,.bat,.apk) that are commonly used to deliver malware. - Risky Archive Warning: Alerts you when opening
.zipor.rarfiles that may contain hidden malicious scripts.
How to Configure
- Go to Settings > Global Settings > Privacy.
- Select Attachment Security.
- Toggle Auto-Scan Attachments to ON.
- Enable Block Dangerous Attachments to prevent accidental downloads of executable files.
