I would like to set up an antivirus.exim rule to simply look at the body copy and filter the email if it contains a china based URL, i.e. a url with .cn/
I have tried several versions of the following, but it still does not work:
$message_body contains "http\:\/\/[0-9a-z]*\.?[0-
also
$message_body contains "http://[0-9a-z]*\.?[0-9a-
Okay, so here is an example of the complete script in /etc/antivirus.exim
---------------------
# Exim filter
if error_message then finish endif
if
$message_body contains "http://[0-9a-z]*\.?[0-9a-
then
save "/dev/null" 660
endif
---------------------
But after restarting exim, I just try to send a simple message with a URL like the following in the body copy, and the email is allowed to pass on through.
http://www.spamalot.cn
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks NerdsOfTech, we considered this one, but I don't want it to be that simple. For one thing it would miss all the URLs that do not contain trailing slash. Then if we just used $message_body contains ".cn" it would inadvertantly block all the email messages that happened to contain those characters unassociated with any URL, e.g. "go to my .cnet address", etc.
before it would match:
www.somesite.MatchIfThisIs
but not
www.virus.cn
because ./ was implied as being in front of an additional prefix to TLD (suh as with .co.uk; where .co is the prefix to TLD)
The new should match (hopefully):
www.virus.cn
thanks but it still does not work, currently trying:
$message_body: contains "http://[0-9a-z]*\.?[0-9a-
I know the basic exim filtering works because other rules such as the following work fine:
$message_body: contains "phentermine"
By the way, I have also tried:
$message_body: contains "http\:\/\/[0-9a-z]*\.?[0-
