Is there any way to specify what URLs ClamAV will download
based on the extension? (IE, only download+scan zip|exe|pif
etc which are found in the url inside a mail)

No. And there are no plans for that, since the file would be endless.
We've seen infestations in just about all file types.

Indeed, that makes sense. Is there perhaps another solution
to cater for the possibility of a DOS attack on the server?
I was wondering what the implications are of mails that
included a large number of external links with gif|jpg etc.
What about limiting the amount of URLs that will be followed
per mail or would this be a waste of time?
