The Attachment Filtering module provides filtering features for mail attachments. It can detect attachments with certain name patterns, of a certain type or exceeding a certain size limit. By using Attachment Filtering, you can achieve the following goals:

1. Limit the size of the attachments entering or leaving the Exchange server mailboxes.
2. Block potentially dangerous attachments, such as .vbs or .exe files, or the e-mails containing them (for example, quarantine e-mail or delete attachment).
   
3. Block attachments having offensive names or the e-mails containing them (for example, reject e-mail or delete attachment).
   

This video tutorial describes how you can configure and test the Attachment Filtering policies that you defined.
