Alfredo,

Yes, edit/modify the /home/opt/MailScaner/filename.rules.conf file and add an 
entry (I copied happy99.exe and changed the name and it seems to be working)

<example>
deny    happy99.exe$            "Happy" virus
                                "Happy" virus
deny    message.zip$            "W32.Mimail" virus
                                        "W32.Mimail" virus
</example>
