Seeing how quickly this could get out of hand, and how hard it would be to
write code to "read" the password from the mail - how about a simple option
that allows full rejection of password encrypted archives - or optional
(based on db lookup) but I'm probably hoping too much there...

I run virtual users out of a mysql database - the user emails are in one
field - options controlling mail handling are in others ('Y' / 'N' enums).

Being able to control this would be ideal, but being able to outright reject
them would be an improvement.

Another tack on this might be accomplished through procmail / maildrop if
unzip will report if archived files are in fact password protected... does
anyone know if there is a way to list passworded file besides trying to
extract them?

Just a few thoughts - as always thank you for the excellent tool
