There is an executable file inside myfile.tar.bz2.

To allow sending executables, you have to edit the
$banned_filename_re in the file
/kolab/etc/kolab/templates/amavisd.conf.template
and remove this entry:  qr'^\.exe$'i

After editing call /kolab/sbin/kolabconf to promote the change.

You may want outgoing spam checks so the bayes filter can learn what
are good emails.
