I have a small request, very similar to this one:

> [@Strip S/MIME signatures](https://meta.discourse.org/t/strip-s-mime-signatures/46371):
>
> I have enabled allow all attachments for group messages to make sure I can receive all attachments sent from external users. That’s working fine slight_smile There’s one exception I’d like to see: I think Discourse should always silent strip the [smime.p7s](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S/MIME) attachment if it exists – that is an S/MIME siganture, not a real attachment. Otherwise, many posts look like this:

Could Discourse also strip PGP signatures, named `signature.asc`?

Sure if that is working we should have a list of bad attachments we blacklist cc @zogstrip
