EmailReporting PlugIn creates attachments out of the footer

Hi all,

my users having links to facebook & co in the email-signature with pngs and gifs.
The EmailReporting PlugIn add these as attachments of the created ticket.
See attached screenshot.

Is there a way to filter these files by name? Maybe there is a possibility to use similar procedere like the "$g_disallowed_files" by extension.

Any ideas?

Jens

Mantis version: 1.2.10

The only way to filter them out at the moment is to modify the plugin yourself as required.

There is a rule system in development which should be able to filter attachment based on a md5 hash but it has been in development for 2 years now so i suggest you do not wait for it

Thank you for the reply.
Maybe the approach of filtering is more a general than an EmailReporting issue?

Not really since MantisBT only allows a user to upload one specific file at a time while EmailReporting adds all attachments in an email which could include useless images for html emails which are not necessary for the issue report
