IT4SmallBiz Posted July 30, 2019 Report Share Posted July 30, 2019 We have archived Outlook emails using GFI-Archiver. These have a .eml extension. We scanned the 690,000 older (2006-2013) email records in the archive and the message is that 2,417 Detected. There are multiple emails within each .eml extension file. "Quarantine selected" and "Delete selected" give the same response: "You are trying to delete a detection that is inside an archive (zip, rar, pst (Outlook)). Any detections inside of archives will cause the archives to be entirely deleted, along with all files or email they contain." "Are you sure you want to delete the selected file(s)?" Does this mean that all of the emails within the .eml file will be deleted or quarantined? Is there anyway to delete or quarantine just the malware emails, but no the rest of the emails in the .eml file? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowPuterDude Posted July 31, 2019 Report Share Posted July 31, 2019 Yes, the entire archive will be deleted. It is not possible to just remove one or more files from a ZIP archive. You would need to unZip the archive then scan the folder and quarantine or delete the infected emails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
