Bug#234617: O: renattach -- Rename attachments on the fly.
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
The current maintainer of renattach, Ryszard Lach <rla@debian.org>, is
apparently not active anymore. Therefore, I orphan this package now.
If you want to be the new maintainer, please take it -- see
http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/index.html#howto-o for detailed
instructions how to adopt a package properly.

Description: Rename attachments on the fly.
Renattach is a small, efficient and surprisingly effective filter
designed primarily to offer an additional level of safety to Windows
users whose e-mails pass through a UNIX-like mail server. Many modern
viruses are spread through e-mail, and renattach combats such viruses by
filtering e-mail attachments based on file extension. In version 1.1.1,
the MIME type is also renamed. The idea is to rename potentially
dangerous attachments (executable ones) so that the user, or the user's
poorly written e-mail software, does not accidentally execute the
attachment.
Justification: plenty of NMUs, didn't respond to ping, new upstreams
available
