One way of accessing these files is via the MIMEsweeper program group.
To access the MIMEsweeper program group (for Windows NT 4.0):1
![]() |
The above is what you would see assuming both MAILsweeper and WEBsweeper are installed. If only one has been installed certain options will not be shown. |
You can select any of the options shown in the MIMEsweeper program group by pointing to it and clicking.2
Selecting an option that refers to a configuration file will open that file for editing. The name of the option indicates the name of the configuration file accessed, as shown on the table below:
1 Only one applies, reflecting the host mail system. |
The information contained in each of these files is discussed fully in the Reference section. See page 7-1 for more details.
The information in each file is held in a number of configuration sections.
Each section starts with a section name, in square brackets, and terminates with a blank line.
[MIM]
A configuration section usually lists a number of directives.3
Each directive comprises a name and a value pair, separated by an equals sign (multiple values are separated by a comma).
[MIM]
ContainerClass=Container
The name or value of a directive may sometimes need its own configuration section. This section must always appear in the same file as the directive.
For example: | ![]() |
[Virus]
Quarantine=VirusQuarantine
Inform=VirusList
[VirusQuarantine]
Comment=Virus in message from %SENDER%
Area=BlockedMessage
![]() |
[Disposal]
DefaultDisposal=Clean
...
VIRUSPRESENT=Virus
[Virus]
InformText=Page blocked - virus detected
A configuration section may also contain comments. These are included by typing a semicolon at the beginning of the line that contains the comment.
; This
is a comment in a configuration file
The comment is terminated at the end of the line.
![]() |
